Beware the Ninja Weenies: And Other Warped and Creepy Tales

(3) 4-6 Just as the title implies, these are tales of the weird and macabre, not meant for the squeamish. Characters explode, are kidnapped, die horrible deaths, turn into statues, get eaten by vampire fish, and more. Each grisly but humorous short story, featuring more boys than girls, is clever and tightly written. An author's note gives readers insights into Lubar's inspirations for each story.
