This book is a bit like The Nightmare Before Christmas - in that it's too scary for the little ones, but maybe not creepy enough for older teens. Having said that, it's well worth the read. There are some plot holes, but it's still quite the page turner which is ALWAYS a good thing. The author actually built the story around 'peculiar' old photos he collected (which enhance the book beautifully) - a refreshing burst of creativity when so much today is vapid and stale.
