Welcome to The Kid’s Korner.
I decided to do this feature as I have so many great children’s books to share. From picture books, to books for beginning readers, to middle graders, I have plenty of fun ones.
Today I’m sharing another spooky fun children’s book by Author Terri Bertha!

Spooky Twisties III
13 Tales Of Terror
by Terri Bertha
Genre: Middle Grade / YA / Supernatural
My Review
Having read and enjoyed the first two books in the series, I was expecting more spooky fun as I ventured once more into a town of supernatural occurrences with a group of stalwart friends.
Terri had a great idea when she interconnected the stories in her books. The tales are all different, but the outcome and events leading up to them are intertwined throughout.
I prowled the library when I was young, looking for books like this. I still do as an adult and get just as much hair raising enjoyment out of them.
Terri brings on the eerie without being too scary and surprises you around every corner. These tales are spooky twistie indeed and a whole lot of fun.

Synopsis
Spooky Spine-Chilling Tales for Children/Teenagers
Spooky Twisties III is the third book in the series offering 13 interconnected short stories for middle grade readers (9 and above). These short, scary, spine-chilling, yet humorous tales, are recommended for children/teenagers and all young readers who enjoy R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps. The quick, fun reads find a group of friends encountering the creepy and supernatural in their hometown which has become a magnet for the strange and paranormal.
House of Puzzles: Will Chris and Nick be able to solve the puzzles to save their lives?
The Best Book Ever: Can a school book report prove to uncover a little too much for one student?
Pretty Voodoo Doll: What will one of the girls resort to in order to make the cheerleading squad?
A Needed Friend: Why does the mysterious boy seem to be drawn to the girl who visits the graveyard?
Ghost Catcher: Lindsay meets a woman with some amazing abilities at the old-age home. Can you catch a ghost?
Saving Cardinals: Does Amy’s love of birds and animals prove to be a life-saver?
Two Bloke Boys: Will Nick and Chris find gold at the end of the rainbow?
Candle Sense: A thoughtful gift provides a haunting experience.
Would You Believe?: The science fair and a revolution. Seriously, that’s why I didn’t turn in my homework.
Dronepocalypse: Buuuzzzz… did you hear that?
The Promenade: A trip to the historical museum and an old photo help solve the question of how to ask a girl to the spring dance.
Dire-Rama: WOW! That model looks so real!
Hello Me, It’s Me Again: Will an unexpected family reunion finally put things to rest?
The hidden references in these short ‘horror’ stories foreshadow future encounters and/or connect back to events of previous stories, and the twists in the story endings make reading the tales even more fun for ages 9 and above.

This is my kind of horror novel! This series sounds like it is so much fun. I love that there is some humour in them.
They are fun and I’ve become attached to these characters:) I really like how the stories connect throughout.
I’ve noticed that MG horror is my favorite. It’s so creepy without all the adult crap in it. I’ll have to check these out, my kiddo is getting to the age where he can read these.

There are so many scary fun MG books. I can’t resist them!
Where was this stuff when I was a kid. Man, I missed out!
I know just what you mean!
These sounds like great books! I would certainly have loved these when I was younger, and am tempted to pick one up now anyway. Lovely review 🙂
I created The Kid’s Korner just to share the fun children’s books I’ve read. I wish there had been more like this when I was kid. My son and I read a bunch of R.L. Stine’s books too.
Even the titles are cute yet hinting to a little bit of thrill for kids Laura!
These are such fun. The neighborhood sounds a lot like the one I grew up in and we had a bunch of us that did some crazy adventures together.
