This book brings back so many nostalgic memories for me, I am in love with the illustrations as much now as I was as a child

This is a great book to read around Halloween, and has a large variety of both short stories and poetry. I especially liked the illustrations and visuals that went with the stories. It is definitely a book that I would include in my future classroom, especially in October. It's great for poetry projects and has a lot of potential for classroom activities.

Casas encantadas, brujas horripilantes, regaderas mágicas, troles apestosos, fantasmas que hacen películas, todos esto y más encontrarás en este libro de relatos de terror para niños.

Estos cuentos no asustan nada, pero sí te sacarán una carcajada, se me hizo muy divertido, excelente para los pequeños de la casa o para ti si quieres pasar un rato divertido con una lectura ligera.

My daughter Ella adores halloween & loves this book! The deluxe edition is a plus with it's oversized illustrations! A new tradition is to read a few every night before bed in October & it will take the entire month to do so. Worth the $!

I have had this book for over 10 years and finally decided to pick it up and read it for this Halloween season. I wanted to feel that childlike nostalgia and this book of witty and wacky poems and stories did it for me!

This is a good book for little kids. I was hoping for you know, classic scary stories but it wasn't scary at all.

Debido a que es un libro para niños, es muy fácil de leer, las historias son más tiernas que terroríficas y las prosas son muy entretenidas.
