![]() ![]() Williams bathes her story in her characteristic rainbow palette of watercolors-even the letters of text are awash in various hues. At bedtime, parent and child recall the day's fun as Evie's father sings her a song ""all about Evie, who flew her kite up with the clouds and the speedy planes."" Young children will feel comforted by the depiction of Evie's loving and supportive family and cotton to Evie's independent, slightly adventurous spirit. ![]() Spare declarative sentences describe Evie's simple good fortune on a day where everything goes her way: ""She wanted something new to wear, and on the hook she found it"" (the artwork shows her reaching for a brightly colored cap) ""She wanted something new to play with, and her grandpa made it for her"" (he is seen crouching with a kite). Young Evie has all the luck-at least in Williams's (""More, More, More!"" Said the Baby) quiet but inviting book. ![]()

However, not all ghost tours are created equal. Well, here in Savannah we got ghosts and drinking laws that’ll give your head the spins! We like to say that visiting Savannah without taking a ghost tour - walking the streets with a cocktail in hand (you can do that here!) - is like making it all the way to France without seeing the Eiffel tower. If you go to Rome, you’d want to visit the Coliseum (and gorge on Pizza!). If you go to Orlando, you’d want to visit Disney World. If you go to Kansas City, you’d want to eat barbecue. That, and the regular paranormal activity taking place around the city. Those are just some of the activities that occurred here, activities that lead people to believe our city is so horrifying. Finding things to do in Savannah isn’t easy - it’s a small city - but did you know we’re actually the most haunted city in America?
