Spiders in the Hairdo: Modern Urban Legends
YA-Teachers or librarians have only to read or tell one of these modern urban legends to a YA audience and the book will be in permanent circulation. All of the stories are brief and easy to read. They are funny, scary, or eerie-and-some are all of the above. Some of the selections are as familiar as "the Vanishing Hitchhiker," but most of them will be new to YAs. A delightful addition to folklore collections.Judy Sokoll, formerly at Fairfax County Public Library, VACopyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.
