Can I tell you what to teach? Oh my God, this is my chance! I can finally tell a teacher what to teach and you can listen or not. I have to make it good; really good. I really enjoyed the Strange and Mysterious unit. I learned about strange and disturbing stories and how difficult it is to put those stories into films. Now, for next year, when a new group of students arrives and they are just as eager to start this unit, I have a fantastic group of authors who should be your first choice for your new minions to read and learn more about their story . ; RL Stine, The Brothers Grimm and my top pick overall, Patrick Carman. Now don't worry too much about why these are great choices because I'll explain why. Let's start with my favorite pick! Patrick Carman. Every time I hear the name Patrick Carman, I think of Skeleton Creek (C P. (2009). Skeleton Creek. (Reprint ed., Vol. 1, p. 144). Scholastic Press: Scholastic), a great series of stories scary ones that I personally liked for the idea of having a book to read and then watching a video of it. I think it would be nice for everyone to see it. Like when you showed us the short clips of The Landlady and the cartoon version and the regular version of The Tell-Tale Heart, you will already have the codes for the videos that belong to the story. When I read the first book for the first time and watched the story clip, I automatically gave it four stars in my head and did a quick review. I'm not the only person who gave it four stars. Patrick Carman's bestselling book has to be Skeleton Creek, the ratings all range from four to five stars, the lowest rating is one (everything in the review was poorly written anyway). The reviews were from Amazon and I found them absolutely helpful, and I couldn't... half paper... copies of all of his collections on my own. Most of them are made into scary shows and movies. I love seeing that kind of thing in action. All Goosebumps is about is disturbing tale after disturbing tale. I'm sure next year's students will enjoy bringing back the good memories. If none of them have ever heard of RL Stine next year, I promise you that if you read them a story, they will be fascinated. I hope I kept you on your toes the entire time. I'm sure I didn't, but you know, I'll leave that to the creepy, disturbing authors (who will get to you even while they're dead) because that's their job. I also hope you'll understand where I'm coming from when I say that Patrick Carman's Skeleton Creek, the haunted fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm, and R.L. Stines' Goosebumps should be in the running to be known and read next year, when I'm no longer. longer there.
