People of a certain age will remember this nostalgic banger as "the one where Jenny's head falls off." Yes, many a childhood night was warped by the macabre magic held in these pages. The author is probably better known for his "Scary stories to tell in the dark" series, which contain the iconic illustrations by Stephen Gammel. The illustrations in "In a Dark, Dark Room," are more conventional (for the time) but in no way less affecting. The aforementioned illustrations from "the Green Ribbon" have traveled with me for nearly forty years. So grab a pillowcase and stuff it with snacks. Grab your copy of "In a Dark, Dark Room," and maybe a copy of "Superfudge" or a Roald Dahl and have your very own elementary school read-a-thon.

I’m thankful I didn’t have to pay an arm and leg for this childhood classic though I didn’t like the fact there was writing in it surely a clean cover could’ve been found and also the spine is somewhat damaged but other then that it’s a good looking book.
