Paperback. Middle grader Tanya has managed to stop famed horror writer Joel Southland from stealing people's nightmares for his books. The malevolent, sentient ink that had been the source of all his powers and successes now belongs to Tanya. But the ink--which feeds on nightmares--is growing hungrier and hungrier. It urges Tanya to plunder the dreams of others so it can feed. Among Tanya's struggles to outwit the ink are eleven other creepy tales representing the dreams and nightmares of other characters in the book. From tales of dentists who are actually giant alien insects in disguise to a kid spotting a tombstone with his own name and death date, these stories are sure to thrill and chill. The epub edition of this title is fully accessible. In this second installment in the Book of Screams series, we revisit the ongoing story of Tanya, who is trying to vanquish a sentient ink that steals people's dreams, and delve into other horrors in short-story form, such as a ray of sunshine that kills, a rabbit carcass that haunts a young boy, and a teddy bear that possesses its owner. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
