Just finished "Dr. Offig's Lessons From The Dark Side, Vol. 1." This is by P.S. Gifford.

If you enjoy short-short stories for a teen market, then this will be a good read. Plenty of sentiment, some clunkers, and some nice jewels. His writing is very good and evocative of real emotion, and with a nice story-sense overall.

I intend to read a few of these to my teenage students, and would recommend this to parents who wish to find a good horror book for their young son or daughter.

To conclude, this book is sanitary-fresh and free of dripping guts, with no dead or rotting cats in the bunch. (Unfortunately.)

(I just now purchased "The Curious Accounts Of The Imaginary Friend," by Gifford. This is more for an adult audience. I'll keep my eyes peeled for one fat tubby.)
