The story is classic and not about the Headless Horseman but the love triangle between Ichabod Crane, Brom Bones and the beautiful, rich, fashionista Katrina Van Tassel. The illustrations are so appropriate and help communicate the mood of the story. Fourth grade students acquire a deeper understanding of this great piece of seasonal literature.

Altho' I am not a fan of primitive art, I feel as tho' Will Moses has truly captured the essence and feel of the Hudson River Valley, as it was nearly 200 years ago. It goes without saying that the Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a classic ghost story, and the paintings truly reflect the text. A head's-up: While adhering to Washington Irving's classic tale, it should be mentioned that this text is a summary/retelling of the Legend. But it stays true to the original tale.
