The Goblin in the Grass and Other Scary Tales

Each story in this collection follows a child who encounters something frightening right at home, from a grass-goblin that lives just beneath the yard to plants with sharp teeth and eerie, glowing eyes. Lisa and her friends must face these uncanny surprises and figure out how to cope with the sudden chill of fear. The short, lightly spooky tales are aimed at early elementary readers who are looking for a mild thrill without heavy scares.
