Title:  The Scary States of America
Author:  Michael Teitelbaum
Ages:  4-6
 
 Aliens, ghosts, and monsters haunt the pages of this eerie trip around the Scary States of  America.   
With Jason Specter, the nation's unofficial collector of all  things paranormal, as your guide, meet the girl in Illinois who can start fires with her mind, the Skunt Ape, of Florida, which knocks victims flat with its stench, and the Mischievous Shadow People of Arkansas.  You may find yourself checking over your shoulder for the dangerous Jersey Devil or the extraterrestrials who visit Washington State and take human organs as souveniers.  You might even feel sorry for the wailing ghost of a teenage girl trapped forever in an Oregon lighthouse.  Some of these visitors from other worlds don't mean to hurt anyone...and some of them do.
