Review: More naughty than demented

I came from a family in which Edward Gorey books were considered perfectly appropriate for seven year olds who wanted to practice reading on their own. "Eloise" was a manual for dealing with annoying relatives. By these standards, "Unholy Cow" is perfectly tame. The Unholy Cow uses its evil powers to corrupt an innocent girl, leading her into an evening of Halloween debauchery.  Being a children's book, the debauchery goes no further than the sins of gluttony and lying.  The child goes home with a sugar high, and all ends happily.
