The incomparable Carl Reiner's first children's book Tell Me a Scary Story was a hit when it appeared in 2003.

Young scary-story lovers will squeal with delight as they follow the second adventure of a young boy and his monster-creating neighbor. As the story becomes scarier, Reiner pauses to ask readers, Shall we turn the page, or is it too scary? That's for kids to decide!

Tell Me a Scary Story...But Not Too Scary! (Byron Preiss Book)

This is simply a great book and CD. Worth every penny and then some. My grandkids of all ages love it.

I turn down the lights, put on the CD and the kids help each other read along. Wonderful story. Carl Reiner is the best. Wish more children's books came like this.

My students and I loved the first book Tell me a Scary Story, but not too scary. It was a fun Halloween read that doesn't cross the line to violence. We read it every Halloween, so I was hoping this would be more of a fun scare. Was disappointed that it was an actual accident Mr Neewollah had.
