  • I remember these from grammar school. They freaked me out so much, I couldn't even hold them. Looking back on it now, I'm surprised this was even considered a kid's book. The images are pretty horrifying.

  • I remember being excited to buy this from the scholastic book thing at school, and when it came it was a kitten poster. I guess they misread my order number.

  • I remember 2nd grade, we did this whole “indoor camping trip” thing near the end of the year. We set up a tent in the classroom, had a fake fire, had smores, and some people brought books to read from. I brought one of these books. Ah, sweet nostalgia.

  • FYI, they reissued these books in a nicer version with less scary pictures. AKA: RUINED THEM. That being said, who's got my toe?
