Description
A headless horseman haunts Sleep Hollow! At least that's the legend in the tiny village of Tarrytown. But scary stories won't stop the town's new schoolmaster, Ichabod Crane, from crossing through the Hollow, especially when the beautiful Katrina lives on the other side. Will Ichabod win over his beloved or discover that the legend of Sleepy Hollow is actually true?

Personal Reaction:
I have always loved the Legend of Sleepy Hallow, it is a fun book to read, but by putting it in comic form it makes the reading more interesting and easier to follow for children. I really liked this one.
Teaching Extensions:
