Just right for mischievous kids to enjoy and play pranks on their parents and relatives old and young with a ‘real’ spider, some spider stickers and a skeleton coming as part of the package!! The book itself has some classic and contemporary ghost stories, each of them good enough to stand-alone. Dust ‘n Bones provides a wonderful introduction – each of the stories are no more than about 10 pages in length- to the immensely popular category of ghost stories. Don’t forget kids are braver than adults so will handle the fear much better.
Contains ten tales, five retold classic ghost stories from "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving to "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allen Poe and five original ghost stories by Chris Mould. Illustrated in colour and black and white, this package is intended for mischievous boys and girls.
Chris Mould went to art school at the age of 16 straight from school. During this time, he did various jobs from delivering papers to washing up and cooking in a kitchen. He realised quite soon that he wanted to illustrate as a full time career and that proved a good choice! He has won the Nottingham Children's Book Award and been commended for the Sheffield. He loves his work and likes to write and draw the kind of books that he would have liked to have on his shelf as a boy. He is married with two children and lives in Yorkshire.
