I grew up loving Joan Aiken's short stories and the way they mixed the strange and the ordinary, finding the magical in the everyday, cracking open possibilities. I want my kids to grow up to love the form, so it's great to be able to put good short stories into their hands.Penni Russonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17956453252195293843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897117031581058690.post-17279187934936780052013-05-25T08:04:19.689-07:002013-05-25T08:04:19.689-07:00I don't have a favorite scary book - unless ma...I don't have a favorite scary book - unless manga counts?

It's certainly the creepiest thing I've read in recent memory and it was so, so delightful (because I equate "delight" with "books that have creepy beetles all through them", apparently.) I'm also a big fan of Cat Valente's MG, so I'm happy to see it getting some love from the other commenters. And of course, gotta love the granddaddy of delightfully creepy, Roald Dahl (thanks to the middle school English teacher who read his adult stories to our class!)<br /><br />Anyway, congrats on the anthology!
