A surprising blend of genres, an excellent collection for use in classes that require different styles of storytelling.

[Sean Benson · Rating 4 out of 5]

A great book for readers of all types and levels. AA great book to give to those kids who say reading is boring. It has silly cartoons, funny and serious poems and a variety of short tales, some gross, some scary, some pull at your heart strings.
