My daughter is 7yrs old and in second grade. She is supposed to read for 20 min each night which sometimes can be a struggle. After this book arrived she has not fought us on reading one single night. In fact is seems that she even reads better with this book since she is very interested in it. The level of reading is perfect for second grade and the little stories are 'spooky' and cute. My daughter loves this book. We also got 'In a Dark, Dark room and other scary stories' and both books are great, she loves both of them.

I remember when my Dad read this to me when I was 5 I guess, and I got soooo scared by that "Suzie the Cat" story, I had constant nightmares EVERY SINGLE NIGHT!! I still remember it to this day! I was sooo scared I tell u! I didn't like the book after my Dad read it, I couldn't even walk past it! Don't buy this for ANYONE no matter what! I'm serious! Don't buy this! If you want to have a child that cries and screams from nightmares all night, then buy it.

When my son read this book it was the first time ever that he read past his required 20 minutes and actually finished the book! He loved the scary tone, but not too scary for a child.
