Scary stories in the dark with lots of teeth! Not for the feint of heart, be warned if you choose to read this collection after the sun sets... A sensory experience indeed with scratches on swing sets, the ghost of Lake Shasta, savage wolves, evil potions, and stormy nights!

— Simon Traub-Epstein, International Library of Young Authors

From the publisher: “This chapbook is the product of a collaboration between 826 Valencia and Buena Vista Horace Mann, a bilingual K-8 school in San Francisco's Mission District. Throughout the fall semester, tutors, interns, and staff worked with the 6th graders to develop ‘scarratives’ (or scary narratives). These stories of fear, courage, and overcoming darkness are straight from the imagination of our young writers.”
