And these are so short that there's not time to get really scared during the individual stories, so I think these might be mom-pleasers as well.

Some stories are genuinely creepy (Ayelet Waldman's &quot;At the Water's Edge&quot; particularly stood out),but also some were real clunkers.

None are more than 3 pages long. One is only 3 sentences! These would be great story starters, too. A fun book!]]></body>
