Curses For Sale

"There isn't a lot you can do for early middle grade weird tales that isn't vaguely like other things that have been written at other times by other people. So, it seems to me that the question for a book like this usually is - is this written well, does it maintain suspense, is the twist pretty well hidden until the end, and can you honestly tell a kid that it's worth the time and effort to read? "Curses for Sale" pretty much earns high marks across the board on that test. . . .The scary/horror/weird part isn't terribly unnerving and shouldn't upset even very susceptible kids, which may be one of the best aspects of the book if you're thinking intro kind of reader. So, a solid entry that seems well worth considering in the scary book category."

"...a fun, easy read for young adults and older children. For me, it was reminiscent of the Goosebump series of my childhood. Scary danger just around the corner but the main characters usually do the right thing, even if it means having to face their fears..."

"Curses for Sale is a fun and slightly spooky book for children around 9 to 13 years old. . . .Readers that have a fondness for the Goosebumps series will enjoy it, and those that have started to outgrow the My Wierd School and other easier series might find this as a good next step."
