No rating, because I am not the intended audience for this book, so I do not believe my rating would be a fair value for this book's worth as a reading tool.
I can definitely see this being a great tool for reluctant readers! This book is short and fast, but actually genuinely spooky. Even with its relatively sparse prose, there are some really unsettling images in the second half.
