Spellbound: Haunted series.
Illustrated by
Daniela Volpari.
Stu and his friend Dan encounter spooky sounds and ghostly figures in four quick, semi-scary adventures. Aimed at reluctant or struggling middle-grade readers, the spare texts of this adequate hi-lo series include key words highlighted with varying typefaces. The dark, shadowy illustrations on every spread reflect the facile stories' eerie tone. Review covers these Spellbound: Haunted titles: A Deadly Fall, Hoops Shadow, Lost in the Dark, and Phantom Flames.
