Praise for Field of Screams:
A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection!
“Chilling, thrilling, and full of heart! Field of Screams is a perfect book for young readers who like their scares accompanied by family mystery, abandoned houses, and the best maybe-a-ghost cat ever.”—Kiersten White, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sinister Summer series
“Full of nail-biting scenes, mysterious atmosphere, and clever scares . . . I couldn’t put it down!”—Lindsay Currie, author of The Girl in White and Scritch Scratch
“Haunted barn? Creepy cat? Yes please! But Field of Screams is so much more than a ghost story. It has as much heart as it does hauntings, and by the time I turned the last page, I found myself not wanting to say goodbye to these characters.“—Lorien Lawrence, author of the Fright Watch series
“Field of Screams is a gripping mystery wrapped inside a ghost story and rooted in realistic characters dealing with honest emotions. Set among shadowy rows of corn and lonesome farmland, Parris’s tale whispers forth a crackling, heat-choked atmosphere, and tension materializes like static before the most wicked of summer storms. My advice: sip an icy glass of lemonade while devouring this morsel of a spooky tale. Goosebumps guaranteed!“—Dan Poblocki, author of Tales to Keep You Up at Night
“[An] atmospheric debut.”—Publishers Weekly
“A spooky yet fun middle-grade story.”—Culturess
