Synopsis
From grotesque monsters to haunted schools to the threat of a modern-day Medusa, the much-loved storyteller Brian Jacques spins six scary (but, of course, not too scary) tales, steeped in folklore, myth and movie nightmares.
In the first story schoolboy scoundrel Archibald Smifft causes complete mayhem when he summons an occult creature, the Ribbajack, to do his evil bidding. In 'Miggy Mags and the Malabar Sailor' a mongoose sides with a young girl against her abusive uncle, and In 'Rosie's Pet' tomboy Rosie befriends a werewolf with spine-chilling consequences. Told with a generous sprinkling of Brian Jacques' wit, this collection is a suitably spooky - and funny - for readers aged 9 - 12.
