Invasion of the Road Weenies and Other Warped and Creepy Tales by David Lubar

4.0

This is a good source of creepy short stories for the upper elementary crowd. A handful of them are really skin-crawling, like the kid being chased through the cemetary by a bad guy who says, "Run, run, run! It makes it more fun!" *shudder* But there are many I can read aloud to a class, like the big sister complaining about how her three-year old brother found the genie bottle before she could, and now he's wishing for weird things like peas when she would've been smart and wished for a gazillion dollars. Lubar gets the kid-sensibility, and each story is short enough to be read aloud to a big group without losing anyone.
