Tell Me Another Scary Story...
But Not TOO Scary!
Carl Reiner
Illustrated by James Bennett
Hachiko:
The True Story of the Royal Dogs
of Japan and One Faithful Akita
Julie Chrystyn
The incomparable Carl Reiner’s New York Times
bestseller Tell Me a Scary Story was a hit when
it appeared. Young spooky-story lovers will
squeal as they follow the second adventure of a
young boy and his monster-creating neighbor.
As the story becomes scarier, Reiner pauses
to ask readers, “Shall we turn the page, or is
it too scary?” That’s for kids to decide! Here’s
a fun book with delicious thrills that children
will ask for again and again. The book includes
original oil paintings by acclaimed artist James
Bennett and a CD read by Mr. Reiner himself.
Hachiko is the true story of a devoted dog who
waited at the train station to greet his owner
every day after work. When his master passed
away, Hachiko continued returning to the station
daily, holding vigil. The faithful Akita became a
national symbol for loyalty in Japan. This book
both describes his story and provides an
informative look at the dog culture in Japan
and the history of the Akita-ken, one of the
most ancient, beloved dog breeds.

The Hundred Secret Senses
Amy Tan
Performed by the author
Just So Stories
Rudyard Kipling
Performed by Carl Reiner
“Amy Tan is as delightful to listen to as she is
to read. She creates magic in this story of two
sisters: Olivia, totally American and pragmatic,
and Kwan, Chinese and mystical, who converses
more easily with the dead than with the living.
Tan’s contrasting American and Chinese accents
bring both personalities vividly to life and provide
enchanting images of alternately conflicting and
blending cultures. She needs no special effects
to engage the listener’s hundred secret senses.”
—Audiofile magazine
In this delightful volume of stories, the author
of The Jungle Book answers some of history’s
greatest questions:

RUDYARD KIPLING, recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907, was an English novelist, short-story writer, and
poet. His sweeping tales of adventure, including Kim, Captains Courageous, and The Jungle Book, have been beloved
by generations.
“Amy Tan’s light, airy voice includes the listener
as if sharing a bedtime story. The naughty white
kitten, Sagwa, comes from a long line of royal
Chinese cats. Her mischief changes the spirit of
the cruel magistrate and future for her ancestors. Tan tells the story simply and with little embellishment. She uses few character voices but
seems to warm to her own telling as the story
progresses. Listeners who love cats, Asian folktales, and authors who read their own stories will
find this a good choice.”
—Audiofile magazine
“A beautifully written story.”
—Kirkus reviews
AMY TAN is the author of the internationally bestselling novels The Joy Luck Club, The Kitchen God’s Wife, and The
Bonesetter’s Daughter.
