They are only told to wear PE clothes and shoes for "outdoor activities" so they are figuring they'll be stuck doing chores around the place. I don't often read middle grade but the blurb selling this as a book similar to that of a Goosebumps book had me sold, and I wasn't disappointed. I’m so glad I got to read this book because I had a great time and it let me discover this great author, who I’ll definitely be reading more of.

They know each other by name, reputation or being in classes together at primary school, but have barely spoken to each other in years. Their teacher Mr Canton doesn't seem angry that his Saturday is taken up with hosting their detention. Cliff hanger chapters, twists and turns, this is not for the feint hearted but it’s a thrill of a ride ( written for 9-12 year olds) A spooky horror story but full of friendships, secrets and the lesson that honesty may be hard but it helps us work together. All of our books are 100% brand new, unread and purchased directly from the publishers in bulk allowing us to pass the huge savings on to you!

Middle-grade readers who love a bit of action, adventure, mystery, and a few scary moments grab a copy of this book. Dread Wood is a YA spooky and creepy story to really make you not want to get a detention at school! I love the characters and the way their relationship naturally grows but there was barely any tension. The four of them soon discover that horrors are lurking within the school, getting stronger by the minute.At Books2Door, we believe that reading is a fundamental skill that every child should have to help improve their vocabulary, grammar, and critical thinking skills. The creep factor gradually builds into the nightmare these teens must work together to defeat and save one another's lives, and the life of their teacher.

Living up to it’s name Dread Wood is a scary mystery book that captured me, it was so compelling, that the day I got it I finished it! It all starts going wrong when there’s a scream in the school grounds and soon after their teacher disappears. I think this would creep out anyone, especially kids, but I don’t think it would scare them unless they are sensitive to one of the TWs mentioned above. I didn’t have a preference when I started reading this book, but now I definitely love them as a whole and through their moniker “Club Loser”.Strange things are happening in the town of Sticky Pines: odd lights in the sky, people disappearing, and now a huge, hairy creature is hanging out in the woods. Giant ground laying spiders who hunt in packs and have been created by the Latchitts, who aren't really the Latchitts, they're disgraced scientists who want to prove they can do something great. This is a brilliant book, particularly suitable for readers aged 9 - 13 who are looking for an action-packed, horror adventure. When they find Mr Canton again, it isn't for long when suddenly a giant hole swallows him into the ground, leaving the children to their own devices and having to protect themselves from whatever is trying to swallow them through the ground and whatever scheme the Latchitts are up too.
