Scary at six is silly-spooky — ghosts who are mostly ridiculous, haunted sheds with funny secrets, monsters more embarrassed than frightening. Our shelf keeps the fright the fun kind: enough suspense for a delicious shiver, always resolved with a laugh or a hug. Each one hand-picked by Hannah, a former English teacher.
