Some Scary Book Trailers

The book equivalent of movie trailers, take a look at some spooky book trailers for these books:

"Ghosthunters and the Incredibly Revolting Ghost" by Cornelia FUNKE watch the book trailer here
"Goosebumps Horrorland" series by R.L. STINE see the book trailer here

Or you can look at some scary book trailers for books from our Senior Fiction:

"Monster Blood Tattoo - Lamplighter" (Bk.2) by D.M. CORNISH - watch the book trailer here
"The Spooks Apprentice" (Wardstone Chronicles) by Joseph DELANEY - see the book trailer here
"The Graveyard Book" by Neil GAIMAN - watch the book trailer here

If you are aged 10+ and really brave you might like to watch and listen to Neil GAIMAN reading Chapter 1 from "The Graveyard Book" here (WARNING: This REALLY is quite scary)

Welcome Back

Hope you all had fun over the holidays and also managed to find time to sit down and read a good book or two. If the weather today (first day back at school) is anything to go by there is still an opportunity to curl up somewhere warm with a good book and catch up on some reading before summer arrives. We have plenty of new books arriving on the shelves this term so remember to check out the New Books Display shelves and blog entries every week.
