William Faulkner Stories for Kids,
By
This review is from: Ghosts of Rowan Oak: William Faulkner's Ghost Stories for Children (Hardcover)
From the cover: In the 1940s, at his home, Rowan Oak, in Oxford, Mississippi, Faulkner told ghost stories to the children in his family. One of those children, Dean Faulkner Wells, has recounted some of these stories in this book. Though the world knew Faulkner as a Nobel Prize-winning author, the children of Rowan Oak called him "Pappy." and knew him as the teller of tales that were tragic, sorrowful, funny, and sometimes terrifying. Presented here are the haunting and heartbreaking story of Judith, the chilling tale of the Werewolf, and the macabre story of the Hound.

The Ghosts of Rowan Oak,
By
This review is from: Ghosts of Rowan Oak: William Faulkner's Ghost Stories for Children (Hardcover)
Don't bother.
First, don't be fooled by cover--it was NOT written by Falkner, but by a desendant using his name-as "told to". A disapointment.
