Praise for "Eerie Elementary #1"
"The plot and twisted storyline will serve the beginning chapter
book reader well. Word choice, action, and crisp sketches support
the story, allowing early readers to develop ideas and easily
follow the plot." -- "Library Media Connection"
"Give this early chapter book to readers who want something scary
but aren't ready for the 'Goosebumps' or 'Scream Street' series."
-- "School Library Journal"
"Dynamic, cartoonish illustrations amp up the action....Readers who
relish the action of Dav Pilkey's Ricky Ricotta series andR.L.
Stine's Rotten School titles may want to enroll at Eerie
Elementary." -- "Booklist"
"Chabert hits just the right horror note for transitional readers,
with thrills that include a dash of absurd humor and fall tactfully
short of being truly frightening....this [is] a worthy and creepy
addition to the Branches series." -- "Bulletin of the Center for
Children's Books"
Praise for "Eerie Elementary #2"
"A good fit for readers not quite ready for Lovecraft Middle School
or Goosebumps." -- "Booklist"
