Reach for this book when your child is beginning to show interest in scary stories but isn't quite ready for the intense horror of modern middle-grade fiction. It is a perfect choice for kids who enjoy the 'safe' thrill of the supernatural but benefit from a release valve of humor to keep their anxieties at bay. Written by the master of mystery Robert Arthur, this collection offers a classic, sophisticated approach to the ghost story. The book consists of ten short stories that blend the eerie with the whimsical. While ghosts, dragons, and spells drive the plots, the emotional core focuses on bravery, ingenuity, and the wonder of the unknown. It is highly appropriate for the 8 to 12 age range because it respects the reader's intelligence with complex vocabulary and clever twists, while maintaining a secular, lighthearted tone that ensures the 'shivers' remain pleasant rather than traumatic.
