Mini House: The Haunted House Board book – January 9, 1994
Haunted House is a wonderful and whimsical Halloween treat. The delightfully frightful story begins one dark and dreary night in a gloomy mansion. There are bats in the belfry, vampires in the windows, and an unseen narrator creeping from living room to bedroom, from attic to cellar, looking for the mysterious monstrous presence haunting the house. It's the little book that goes Boo!

- Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2013This book, and several others like it that I have purchased, are really ideal for very young children. The illustrations are terrific, and the cutout books really add to the pleasure of the book. The only thing is that the tape that holds them together can let loose, so check it carefully when you get it to make sure it is on correctly. I would recommend these books.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2020my sister had this as a kid and loved it. Now I bought this book for her children and they love it too. The 2 year old asks me to read it over and over.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2021I purchased this haunted house book 27 years ago and my little ones loved it then. I pull it out every year with the Halloween decorations but the gate that closes the book broke off so I was so happy that it's still in print because now my grandkids adore this clever little story book board. Thank you.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2013I expected that it was more of a flip, unfold, turn page book - it's just a turn the page, but it is adorable and my son will love it. I had same issues as most others with the binding and the latch on closing the book not staying shut - for 8-10 dollars this is way too much - on one hand the concept and thickness of the pages makes you think you understand why it costs so much, but when you get down to it, book is not worth more than 5 or 6 dollars. son will love it tho, so I kept it
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2020My four year old grandson absolutely loves all of these Mini books. He has a playroom full of lots and lots of toys (only child, first grand on one side) but he leaves them to enjoy a new Mini whenever he gets one and goes back to the book to sit and enjoy it again.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2017It is a small book. The color isn't as bright as the picture presumes. It is a super cute book
- Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2018So so adorable my kids LOVE IT! It is very small, but I think That makes it even better!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2019So cute! A great gift for little ones!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good size and the content.
I purchased it for my 3 years old daughter and can say that she loves it and the size is perfect for her small hands and can be taken for a walk or trip as well. Not much written, however enough for her age to keep her excited and busy.
Please note: different children finds different things more or less interesting, thus you need to consider it too.

5.0 out of 5 stars 飾っておいてもかわいい
本物の家のように立体的になっています。門からコワーイ
ホーンテッドハウスに入っていけますよ。
1ページがとても厚いので子供の口に入っても破れたりしないでしょう。
細部まで細かく色々と描かれており、そういったものを探したり
見ているだけでも楽しめます。うちのムスメも大好きな本のひとつです。
