Laughing and Scared

ATTACK OF THE VAMPIRE WEENIES AND OTHER WARPED AND CREEPY TALES Written by David Lubar
Published by Starscape Books (2011)
If you are tired of all the vampire books and related movies (you know the ones I mean) this book will give you some comic relief. Lubar is great at making fun of popular topics (like those vampire books). Enjoy the laughs when you can because all it takes is one turn of the page to be scared. I like this collection of short stories because you are laughing one minute and turning on more lights the next. Many of the stories will give you the creeps because Lubar writes about everyday events that turn out badly - very badly - for the characters. 

Have you ever crushed a spider with your shoe, passed cooties on the playground, wear your ear buds too much, or kicked over an anthill?  I encourage you to stop - right now! Curious?  Plan to read the latest in the Weenies books from David Lubar.  


What? Some of you don't know about these hilarious and scary reads? I know a bunch of you are fans of the Scary Stories books Alvin Schwartz.  This is the next series for you!
