Congratulations. You are officially the most loathsome book I have ever reviewed on any social media platform. When I sit down to read Scooby Doo with my children, I expect the book to leave them with a feeling that things have a more natural explanation. I have no intention of introducing my children to voodoo dolls as authentic phenomena and creatures who steal life forces from others. I expect the crook to be unmasked at the end, not a sentence about having seen real ghosts! Very few times have I wanted to actually destroy a real library book. But this offensive item...
