I loved the adult version of this book, which took readers to some of the quirkiest, most bizarre locations in the world, so I was thrilled to see a version for younger readers. Like it’s big sister, this book is filled with descriptions of odd and creepy places, with colorful illustrations that will grab a young reader’s attention. This is going on my must purchase book for my library’s 2018 -2019 budget
