Book description
On the back of the picture were two words which jumped right out at
me: THE FRIGHTENERS...
When Chloe starts at a new school, she gets off to a really bad
start and no-one wants to be her friend - except Aidan. But everyone
else seems scared of Aidan - scared of the pictures he draws. Chloe
can't imagine why until she picks up one of his drawings of 'The
Frighteners'. For now the Frighteners - horrifying monstrous creatures
- won't leave her alone...
PETE JOHNSON began work as a film critic for Radio One, then
became a teacher. His experiences in the classroom led to his
beginning to write and he still keeps contact with a panel of young
readers to gain the viewpoint of the actual reader as he writes new
titles. He is the author of several titles for the Corgi Yearling list.
