4.0 out of 5 stars A Very Good Book!, December 16, 2000
A Kid's Review
I think this was a really good book and I know that a lot of other kids would like it too! I really liked the part where the kids went into the Hauntley's house and saw eye balls and other neat stuff!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Spooky Story, December 19, 2007
By Andrew Hume "Calhoun Fourth Grade" (Calhoun School, New York) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The authors are Marcia Jones and Debbie Dadey. The main characters are Ben Kilmer and Annie. In Monsters Next Door, people just moved in to a new neighborhood. The kids that lived there are suspicious about them. The story is a spooky story. The setting is a small town where strange things happen. The theme is a couple of kids think a family is weird. My favorite part was when Kilmer made a scary pumpkin. The book does not start in a in a exciting way but it gets suspenful.

I would recommend this book for kids ages 9-12. It would be hard for younger kids to understand it all.

I give this book 4 stars. Hope you like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A FUNNY Book!, November 17, 2000
By Kim McKelvey (Gladwyne, Pa USA) - See all my reviews
"The Monsters Next Door" was a funny also kind of scary book in the beginning. This book is about a boy named Ben and a girl named Annie they also have a friend named Jane. Monsters move in to their next door from Transylvania. Their names are the Huntley's. The lady and her husband moves in with their son Kilmer. They have a Inn called Hauntly Manor Inn. Kilmer's dad loves to bury things in the mud. They get to meet them more and start thinking that they are very nice people!
