Jaclyn used to live with her aunt Greta in Chicago. But not anymore. They've moved to a place called Sherpia. It's a tiny village on the edge of the Arctic Circle.

Jaclyn can't believe she's stuck out in Nowheresville. No movie theaters. No malls. No nothing. Plus, there's something really odd about the village.

At night there are strange howling noises. And in front of every house there's a snowman. A creepy snowman with a red scarf. A deep scar on his face. And a really evil smile. . . .

This review is from: Beware, the Snowman (Goosebumps) (Paperback)

This book was amazingly good! It's about Jaclyn, a 12 year old who lives with her aunt and is shocked when they move to a village in the Arctic Circle. Jaclyn soon realizes this village has a creepy tale with it. I am not spoiling the ending. All I can tell is it has a bed tempered snowman and a creepy poem in it! Read this! It's awesome!!!!!!!!!
