I remember reading this book in the 1st grade. I loved it! My favorite story was/is The Green Ribbon. The other stories are pretty spooky too! If you have a child that loves scary stories, then they'll love this!!!

This book, and the other books by Alvin Schwartz, are some of the most if not THE most memorable books of my entire life. Theres something special about a book if you read it over and over and remember the stories well into your adult life. The way the stories are told is magical, I mean here's this intensly horrifying situation, but the way its worded so simply and easily has a sort of strange feeling to the whole story. this is what keeps me reading this book. i remember in our library in grade school, i would just go straight to these books and just read them right there on the spot and go back to class. I cant really describe the way THE GREEN RIBBON makes me feel, its a very strange, scary, tingly, wondering, warm feeling. not many stories told so simply can do that. MAGICAL.

Sometimes you CAN judge a book by it's cover. For the reviewers that seem amazed that these are scary stories, read the title very first and then you must be the judge as to whether the children in your life can handle it. It states very clearly that these are scary stories. Also, check out the picture on the cover. It isn't exactly Pooh Bear. My 3 year old LOVES this book, but he isn't scared of much of anything. Now my oldest daughter couldn't have handled this book, even at 7 years old. She's in 8th grade now and wonders why she was so scared of it-lol. She still enjoys rereading this book, even at her age. So you have to judge whether your think your child can deal with it or if it might be a bit too frightening for him or her. But you have to use common sense also. If a book says it contains scary stories then don't act surpised when the stories are, well, scary. I loved these type of stories in grade school myself.
I would not recommend it for very young children or those who are easily frightened because I am sure this will give them nightmares. Now older kids will probably enjoy it very much. My youngest daughter loves it and has loved it since she was in 1st grade. She kept checking it out of her school's library so I broke down and bought a copy recently and I even enjoyed "The Green Ribbon" and "The Night It Rained". We used to read the story of a Dark, Dark Room back when I was in kindergarten and I have always loved that story. This is a fun book to read around Halloween or whenever your child is in the mood for a little scare.

OMG!!! I had this book as a kid and that was over 15 years ago and I knew I loved the story about the girl with the ribbon around her neck. It terrified me and my friends every time we'd read it at Girl Scout Camp. I knew I had to get it for myself because I've been thinking about the past alot and I couldn't remember the name of it, so I typed in scary stories and who knew I'd find it. I remember the book cover, I can't believe I found it; I never thought I'd find my favorite childhood book. That includes another book called Frog and Toad All Year; these two books were ultimately my favorite books as a child. I'm so happy... because now, I'm going to buy it.
