A review by jodil
In a Dark, Dark Room and Other Scary Stories by Alvin Schwartz

5.0

Saw someone dressed as Jenny from "The Green Ribbon" for Halloween and viscerally recalled the fear of reading this book as a kid. It spooked me then and I love how fun and creepy it is now! I love the genre of horror within readers for kids who want something scary but aren't ready for Goosebumps yet. Nightmarish AND developmentally appropriate!
