This review is from: The Kingfisher Treasury of Ghost Stories (The Kingfisher Treasury of Stories) (Paperback)
This is a collection of 18 ghost stories. Some are really scary. Others are stories of friendly ghosts! We had never heard any of these stories before. The book says that it's for ages 5-8. I think it really needs to be for kids a little older than that.
