APPEALS TO: MANY 

Carly Beth is tired of being scared all the time and getting teased for it. Looking for the perfect Halloween costume to actually do the scaring herself, she runs across a creepy little store that has some fantastic masks for sale. Against the storekeeper's advice, she buys one that literally might transform her and make her scary forever. 

A fun adaptation of Stine's novel, this will appeal to anyone who wants a mild scare. The drawings are well done and it is a fast read. Perfect for reading just before bed! Carly Beth is drawn white and her friend's culture is unspecified.
