- Night of the living head / by Hanna Alkaf.; Ireland, Justina.;
Twelve-year-old Alia has always had the worst luck. Whether it's her parents moving her all the way from Kuala Lumpur to a tiny village or her shoes constantly coming untied, Alia can't help but feel as if the universe has it out for her. To top it all off, her estranged older sister, Ayu, has just reappeared in their lives after years away. Alia's parents are delighted, but Alia is not so sure. She remembers the fights, the tears, the pain her sister caused and knows this is just another case of bad luck following her around. Then Alia's school fills with rumors of a horrifying creature spotted flying in the night sky. And Alia realizes that perhaps it's not just her bad luck this time--but something more sinister is lying just under the surface of her town... and it's up to Alia to put an end to it for once and for all.Ages 8-12.- Subjects: Horror fiction.; Monsters; Fortune;

- The boo hag flex / by Ireland, Justina.; Hanna Alkaf.;
The last thing Tasha wants is to move from her home in Atlanta to Middle-of-Nowhere, Georgia. But when her mother dies and Tasha is taken in by her father--a man she's never met, who took off when she was just a baby--she doesn't have much of a choice. The trailer park where Tasha's father and grandmother live seems like a miserable place to spend a summer, even before one of her neighbors mysteriously passes away. That's when she meets a girl named Ellie, who's sure she knows what's behind the death: a shadowy, spindly creature that stalks the trailer park at night. Tasha doesn't want to believe it, but when she discovers an old book of hoodoo and Southern legends in her grandmother's trailer, and more people around her fall ill, she begins to fear that Ellie's story is true and that danger might be closer than she thinks"--Ages 8-12.- Subjects: Horror fiction.; Girls; Mothers; Trailer camps; Fathers and daughters; Friendship; Grandmothers; Legends; Monsters;
