Review # 1 was written on 2019-01-16 00:00:00 Plummer Ronald Really fun quirky stories about quirky kids. Sometimes a bit scary, but nothing like Clive Barker... My favorite was "Clean as a Whistle," about Jane Carhart, the messiest kid in Minnesota, and her cleaning fairy. I can relate to the idea that messes can be comforting, but cleanliness is more efficient...

Review # 2 was written on 2011-05-14 00:00:00 Johnny Smith Short stories are good. It's because you rarely get interrupted when you are reading through the whole story, and it is also because it hardly is boring(pardon my words, but it's true!)if the story is short and easy to swallow in small bites. I like collections of short stories like these in this book, and you feel multiple of feelings while you read through many stories with sentimental, humorous, and those which chills your spine late at night. I personally like types of stories where you don't need to think a lot, and just let the stories absorb you. I think these stories are those types of stories. You just place yourself, like watching a movie, into the whole setting and vision the characters in front of you. I personally liked the story about the box, and duffy's jacket, because I could relate to the characters in the story, and the ending was what I liked. Though in Duffy's Jacket story, I kind of knew the surprise ending before it was told. I heard similar stories before, but I'm not sure from where... I'm still reading this book (borrowed from Yii-ru :-) I should return it soon to her..)
