A review by librarianryan
John Carpenter Presents Storm Kids: Sacred Hearts by Sandy King, Steve Niles, Nat Jones

dark fast-paced

4.0

 This was horrifically fun.  :).  So horror for kids can go all sorts of right and all sorts of wrong.  There may be some parents who find that this is to “bloody” for their kids, but the story is very well done and I love the graphics.  Everyone in town knows there is something off about the Franklin family, and the woods they live in.  This story has such heart and such charm for something that would be classified as horror.  I do think the ending is a little short and too quickly wrapped up, but kids wanting horror can not go wrong with this book.  My nephew is 11 and I would fully let him read it.
