Stack Overflow: Putting the “BOO!” in “Comic Books”

Ms. Nomed has challenged her students to tell eerie stories, but for some reason Davis and Emily are very reluctant to share — and the teacher is particularly curious to hear what they have to say. With that framing story, there are five chilling tales, intercut with scenes from the classroom. Two tax collectors talk to the sole remaining citizen in a village that seems to have vanished. A young girl, living in the woods with her horrible aunt and uncle, discovers a weird talking head while she’s out chopping wood. A spaceship passes through a strange star cloud … and some of the crew start acting very strangely. The kids’ stories are varied and generally independent from each other, but (as you may have guessed from the cover) things aren’t quite what they seem at the school, and the framing story itself becomes more and more eerie as you continue. I’d say the book’s cover gives you a good feel for the tone and level of creepiness — it’s meant for kids but can get a little disturbing in some places. <a href="https://geekdads.medium.com/stack-overflow-putting-the-boo-in-comic-books-1d03914eb979">Click Here</a>
