All 19 stories in this book are well-written, interesting and obviously well researched. I enjoyed each one! The author also includes information on where the places and events occurred and how to learn more about the story. The author is careful to mention when places, homes, locations are private property or public park land. The stories are presented not as horror tales but as folklore. There is nothing too scary or graphic for middle-grade aged children. Children and adults alike will enjoy these tales of legendary animal hauntings. The stories are varied with locations ranging all over the United States.
I could definitely see this book incorporated into lesson plans for United States history, geography or even creative writing. Kids would enjoy the stories and learn a little bit about different areas of the country and folklore.
A fun read! I recommend this for anyone 10 & up who enjoys folktales with a bit of a spooky edge to them!
