The Skull Talks Back introduces young readers to this world through scary stories told in vernacular language that combines the supernatural with a humorous edge, and that usually ends up with a character running away in terror. From a rebellious talking mule to a skin-shedding witch, children learn how folk tales are told to remind the listener about the rules of society, and the difference between right and wrong. The evocative illustrations by Leonard Jenkins, cast in dark tones with renderings of skulls, witches, and black cats, add to the uncanny feeling. The Skull Talks Back is a fantastic entry into the world of Zora Neale Hurston, as well as a delightfully scary example of our diverse cultural heritage. ( )
