League of the Paranormal
Written by Vanessa Lanang
When kids are asking for scary books in your library, where do you turn? It seems there is never enough variety in the scary books collection in our library. This book will help fill the need for more creepy books. This is more a creepy book than a scary one, but it will find its way into kids’ hands.
It is a simple story. The school basketball court was built on top of an old cemetery and some strange things start to happen when the co-captains of the girls basketball team find an old playbook. They start to use the plays described in the book and then the creepy things begin to scare them. Will they keep using the plays when they think that is the only reason they are winning their games? What’s more important: winning or peace of mind?Reviewed by Merri Rygg, Media Clerk, Truman Elementary
