Ghostyshocks and the Three Scares by Laurence Anholt

Ghostyshocks and the Three Scares by Laurence Anholt

The twelfth title in the highly successful Seriously Silly Stories series. The stories are reworkings of traditional fairy tales with a new twist. Two things frighten Ghostyshocks more than anything in the world. The first is the deep, dark forest and the second is vampire bears. So she's extra shivery-quivery when she gets lost in the wood with only one old house in sight. Could it be where the scary bears live? Poor Ghostyshocks must knock on the door and find out...

Brilliant line drawings and speech bubbles add to the hilarity of this alternative re-telling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears * BookTrust *
Packed with seriously silly jokes and laced with Arthur Robins' cheeky illustrations, this book is an absolute scream * Junior Education *
