Book of the Week: Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

October is here and it just happens to be one of my favorite months for reading.  Who doesn't love a good ghost story?  So for this month, each of our Book of the Week selections will be something to send a tingle down your spine.


 
 
The Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark trilogy by Alvin Schwartz is one of the best collection of stories for upper elementary and middle school students around.  Each book contains short works of folklore and urban legends with some songs and "jump" stories.  One of my favorite pieces is "Harold", which is found in Scary Stories 3:  More Tales to Chill Your Bones.
 
 
Happy hauntings reading!
