Brand new series of six seriously scary stories full of humour with black-and-white illustrations throughout.
Tiny Tom Thumb may be a ghost the size of a stick of gum, but he knows how to make a lot of scarily MASSIVE mischief!
These are fabulous short stories that will have youngsters who are ready to read short stories on their own lapping up every word and laughing on every page. Add the chaotic style illustrations and these are a sure-fire winner for any young reader. - Birmingham Post

Hilarious short stories that might remind you of ones you know. They encourage newly developing or reluctant readers, but are great fun for all ages and abilities. - Primary Times
