Wodehouse, Edgar Allen Poe, Graham Greene, Jack London, D. H. Lawrence and Guy de Maupassant. Surprising, shocking, amusing, intriguing, terrifying, each of these stories has a sting in its tail!
This is a great read for a quiet weekend" Mizz; "The hilarious rub shoulders with the disturbing and the collection has a very international feel." The School Librarian
Sara Corrin, along with her late husband Stephen, is well-known for her distinguished and popular anthologies for children. Sara says her greatest joy is sharing stories with children - as a teacher, she became known as The Storyteller, and pupils would come back years after they had left school to recall the tales they had enjoyed in her classes. Sara's storytelling took her to America, Holland, and all over Great Britain. Sara lives in London.
