Perfekt för de som precis börjat läsa och vill ha något läskigt.

I needed to read this to determine if it being in a Picture book section was suitable or not and it turned out to be kind of lame. All normal until a "scary" twist at the end. The pictures were wonderful though and depending on the kid, they could get nightmares from the last picture.

These popped up on Epic, and my 5-year-old son loves them! Fun, and not too scary.
