The TAILYPO, a Ghost Story - BOOKS for SHNOOKS

1977. Told by Joanna Galdone. Illustrated by Paul Galdone. "A strange armint haunts the woodsman who lopped off its tail." The story of the Tailypo is part of American folklore. According to Wikipedia: "Tailypo is a creature of North American folklore, particularly in Appalachia." I do have to say that this story is a little on the scary side, so if you're going to show it to younger kids, please be sure to preview it first for appropriateness.
