Review by: David H. Keith on Jan. 31, 2013 :
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, although I do wish there were more of it. The stories are so very well-told and reminiscent of all those deliciously spine-tingling monster stories kids take such delight in.

Very well-done, Ms. Cheek. I can't wait to read more of your work.

I will not hesitate to recommend this book.

Review by: Elizabeth Rowan Keith on Jan. 31, 2013 :
Excellent! I enjoyed these stories. They are both attractively and intelligently crafted, although it took a moment for me to find the groove of the first. I was not prepared for the first to end when it did, but I am grateful for the way it did.

I simply could not stop reading the second until I had reached the end. Told with a touch of humor, humility, and eloquence, this is a story of uncommon power and ageless possibility. Highly recommended!
