Why read it?
1 author picked Welcome to Dead Town Raven McKay as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a gorgeous, lyrical, very different kind of horror story for children. Aimed at middle grade, so ages 9-12, it tells the tale of young Raven, who is put into foster care in a very spooky town where half of the inhabitants are dead.

What I love most about this book is the sheer range of ghostly characters–they are magnificent. If you love ghosts and creepiness generally in your stories, give this new Irish author a try.
From Carolyn's list on spooky Halloween books for children.
