Deadly Morgues
From the Series Spooky Stories for Grades K-3
You enter a cold room covered with white tiles. The lights flicker. You notice a metal stretcher in the corner. On it is a body draped in a white sheet. A thin stream of blood trickles from the stretcher onto the floor. Then, suddenly, the lights go out! Get ready to read four spine-tingling stories about deadly morgues. This 24-page book features controlled, narrative nonfiction text with age-appropriate vocabulary and simple sentence construction. The colorful design and spooky art will engage and terrify emergent readers.
