Michael Dahl is the prolific author of the bestselling Goodnight, Baseball picture book and more than 200 other books for children and young adults. He has won the AEP Distinguished Achievement Award three times for his nonfiction, a Teacher's Choice award from Learning magazine, and a Seal of Excellence from the Creative Child Awards. Dahl currently lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Euan is an illustrator from London who enjoys drawing pictures for books, watching foxes and jays out his window and walking around looking at broken brickwork, sooty statues and the weird drainpipes and stuff you can find behind old run down buildings.
If you know a young reader who likes scary stories but who isn't quite up to tackling something the length of, say, a GOOSEBUMPS book, give Michael Dahl and Euan Cook's SCHOOL BUS OF HORRORS series a shot. . . .The puns in the book and chapter titles ("Shifting Blame," "More Parts," "Oozing Control," "Shocking," etc.) are clear indicators of what to expect, and I'm sure kids will be tickled by them. . . .There should be something in each of these books to entertain and lightly scare, and they seem like a great way to hook young or struggling readers.-- "Fantasy Literature"
