Praise forBeneath the Bed and Other Scary Stories(Mister Shivers #1):

Selected by the New York Public Library as one of 2019's Best Books for Kids!

* Brallier's (The Last Kids on Earth and the Cosmic Beyond, 2018, etc.) strong horror chops translate well into this Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark-lite package for early chapter-book readers... Simplified spooks for the we-want-it-just-scary-enough crowd. --Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Praise forShadow in the Woods and Other Scary Stories(Mister Shivers #2):

Selected by the Chicago Public Library as one of 2020's Best Books for Kids!

Brallier effectively repeats the screamworthy formula established in Beneath the Bed and Other Scary Stories (2019) to add a sense of familiarity to the foreboding... The abrupt, disquieting endings mix the creepy and weird with the genuinely terrifying, creating a nice balance as readers jump bravely between stories... Easy to read but definitely not easy to forget. --Kirkus Reviews
