'For Stella Rosa's older brother Simon,
there was no better fun than scaring his sister.
Sometimes, it was shouting "BOO!" when she least expected it.
Sometimes, it was putting a spider on her plate...
but Simon's favourite way to frighten his sister
was to tell her a scary story.'

I have to say, that's a great opening, which is worth saying because openings are so damned hard to write well. I tend not to read children's books, but I find myself wanting to read this one. Here is wishing you the very best of luck with it.
Hey Steve - thank you. You should see the pictures. The illustrator is amazing.
cheers
Melinda
