Precious and the Boo Hag by Onawumi Jean Moss, Patricia C. McKissack

5.0

What a fun book!  This felt folkloric to me, a trickster tale, but I can't think of anything that it would be based off of!  That being said, it's a great picture book that is perfect for children.  It's about obedience, bravery, and intelligence.  When the Boo Hag turns out to be real, and not something that Precious' brother was trying to scare her with, she must think on her feet and do what she can to prevent her from entering her family's house.  Overall, it's a great book with good rhythm, illustrations, and narration.
