Book Description
A collection of over forty very, very short stories, all on a wonderfully spooky theme!
Product Description
Over forty stories in one book-all of them very, very short! None of the stories are more than two pages long, but each of them is special and thought-provoking. Drawn from a range of sources, including folk tales, urban myths, and narrative jokes, as well as original stories, the stories are ideal for use in the classroom as well as for sleepovers and just for dipping into. Short and Spooky! includes stories of ghosts, of all kinds-some funny, some scary, some shocking-but all guaranteed to give a fright!

Format:Paperback
This is the fifth in the series of 'Short' books. It is the second by Louise Cooper who wrote 'Short and Scary' in 2002. This book appeared 3 years later and is full of the same mix of short and spooky tales. They are great for reading silently in the book corner, reading during a wet playtime, for a teacher to illustrate a point succinctly or for a supply teacher or parent to read to their class/child. The book is like a box of chocolates; one tale is never enough. The stories seem to clamour out to be chosen and they provide an excellent complement to a longer class or bedtime story which is being read as a serial.

I love this series of books - Some stories are better than others - children enjoy them because they are short.

Have used 3 stories from this book so far in literacy lessons with my Year 5/6 class. They have been really engaged by the twists of some of the plots and the suspense and tension each story has created. It has provided excellent inspiration for some fanastic spooky mystery stories.
