Praise for YOUNG SCROOGE
“Stine brings his characteristic humor and light scares to a reworking of Dickens’s A Christmas Carol, set at Oliver Twist Middle School. . . . It’s eerie holiday fun.”
— Publishers WeeklyPraise for The Lost Girl
“A nostalgia trip for the original fans of Fear Street.”
— Kirkus ReviewsPraise for Can You Keep a Secret?
“Temptation, fear, and betrayal are deep roots of this stunning read. Death, danger, and the truth will keep readers turning the pages in a race to figure it all out.”
— San Francisco Book ReviewPraise for FEAR STREET SUPER THRILLER
“Stine revives his Fear Street series with a tale that brings together a group of Shadyside teenagers for a night of terror…Stine again demonstrates that he is a true master of the formula.”
— Booklist“The author’s instinctive for creative kills remains strong despite a 15-plus-year absence from the series…These books are designed to be a pleasant diversion as well as fodder for nightmares…and the author doesn’t disappoint.”
— Kirkus“Lurking on Fear Street are many more page-turning… horrors from the beloved author… A volume that proves why Stine’s books endure.”
— School Library JournalPraise for DON’T STAY UP LATE
“Stine, whose Goosebumps books are a children’s publishing phenomenon, is reviving another beloved series: Fear Street, a best-selling line of young-adult horror books.”
— The New York Times“Nineties-era nostalgists are celebrating the news that Fear Street, R.L. Stine’s sprawling classic horror series for teens… will be making a comeback.”
— New York Magazine“You can now get excited for next year’s October 31st. R.L. Stine is releasing a new book in his classic YA horror series, Fear Street, in time for Halloween 2014.”
— Flavorwire.comPraise for IT’S THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL…FOREVER!
“Stine takes the normal anxieties of childhood–in this case, the first day at a new school–and blends exaggerated humor with a few equally exaggerated moments of horror in a fast and goofy romp. Lots of fun for Stine fans.”
— Booklist“As usual, Stine delivers the hilarity and horror that readers love, and his mastery of sustaining mood will not disappoint. The humor and descriptive first, first day of school allow for faster pacing in the subsequent days, and kids will love the twist at the end.”
— School Library Journal“Stine’s signature blend of horror and humor, combined with an unexpected ending, offers a fresh view on a familiar idea.”
— ABC New York
