Description

“The Book of Horrors” is a collection of scary stories by modern Ukrainian children’s writers. In the dark dark room, on the black black shelf, there is a scary scary book…. It contains eight thrilling stories about various mystical, sometimes otherworldly and utterly unexpected events and creatures, including children. If you’re not afraid yet, then meet Mia Marchenko’s black tulips (‘The Black Tulips’), Volodymyr Arenev’s inhabitants of the abandoned attic (‘The Wheeled Coffin’), Larysa Andriyevska’s ugly monsters (‘Monsters from under the Child’s Bed’), Ivanka Kravtsova’s bleeding cuckoo bird (‘Cuckoo’), Yozha Kotsun’s beasts (‘The Beasts’), Slava Svitova’s pygmy witch (‘The Pygmy Witch’), Yuriy Nikitinsky’s ghosts (‘Ghost of Olya and the Real boy named Kostyk’) and Maria Artemenko’s philosopher worms (‘This Fairy Tale is not about an Apple’).
