This spooky story from Jamaica and re-told by Roger Hurn in his book Spooky Stories and Twistwed Tales, is a great one for sharing because it grabs the attention of even the most reluctant listeners and all those children who love stories that give them goosebumps. There is a set of key questions More…for teachers to help the children engage with what they've heard. The story also lends itself to dramatisation and oral re-telling.

A brilliant, perfectly short story to use with mid and lower set Year 9s. Plenty of suspense techniques for them to get their long, sharp teeth into. Thank you! from nightowl1980, 24 March 2013	(report comment)	5 out of 5
