THRILLS & CHILLS IN THE CLASSROOM THIS OCTOBER

By Chris Wilson

A little holiday spookiness is headed your way this October. A fan of cool weather, pumpkins, monsters, costumes and haunted corn maizes, I enjoy celebrating Halloween. Maybe that explains why my family and I put up a Halloween tree every year. We are weird like that I guess.

Kids like monsters, mummies, vampires, skeletons, pirates, and all things scary. Ask any school librarian and they will tell you that the scary books go like hot cakes. So it seems fitting to indulge that scary side of our interests and present to you a month of monsters, 30 days of suspense, four weeks of hobgoblinry.

So enjoy our reviews this month of Halloween-inspired comic literature. It’s not all monsters, by the way, but just good old fashioned literature that might make you and your students squirm. The fun begins next week.
