This book was first published in 1983, its a really old book. I just finished reading it, and I really liked it. As the title says its all about witches and ghouls, all these creatures. I think anyone would like this book as much as I did.

The Valley of Secrets
By Charmian Hussey
It was a really good book that made it seem like you were right there in the story! It had a lot of things in it that I'm interested in, like the Amazonian Rainforest, animals, and adventures. Very interesting and entertaining, plus it makes you think.

This was a really funny book, just by looking at the title! Lets just say a boy named Tom has a great brain, you'll see what I mean when you read it! I can't spoil it, but make sure do not judge this book by its cover, because its really good!

The Marvelous Land of Oz
By L. Frank Baum
This is the second book in the Oz series by L. Frank Baum, and it is very entertaining. I just finished it within 3 days. It may be a children's book, but there are lots of puns that little kids would not get. Although it does not feature Dorothy, other favorites like Glinda, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Woodsman are in it. We are also introduced to Jack the Pumpkinhead, who is a complete cutie. The main character this time around however, is Tip, a little boy in the care of the evil witch Mombi. I would recommend this book to anyone that has read the Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and I would recommend that book to everyone.

Claudia and the Bad Joke
By Ann M. Martin
I can read this book over and over again, it is one of my favorites. In my opinion it’s the best one from The Baby-sitter's Club series! Lets just say Claudia babysits a brat who pranks too far to become a bad joke! Someone ends up getting hurt. That’s all I can say, you have to read it, its for all ages!
