An eerily beautiful Halloween awaits you!
Look forward to an exciting scary reading with Boris Koch and his new book "Schule des Schreckens - Die Gruftis sind los!" . Goosebumps included!
Afterwards you can get creative yourself: In our Halloween craft corner you can design cool bat puppets.
And of course, if you stop by and take part, you won't go away empty-handed - in keeping with Halloween tradition, sweets are waiting for you in the bookshop!
About the book:
Kilian's lessons are constantly being canceled: Teacher shortage. This doesn't bother Kilian, but it drives his parents crazy. So much so that they even move house and send Kilian to a new school. Because at the Buchenschlag boarding school in the Teufelsforst, everything is about to change. Kilian and his new friends Ole and Yunai soon find out why: former teachers at the boarding school swore during their lifetime to support the school even after death if necessary. And so the undead emerge from their tomb during the day and teach the children using subterranean teaching methods.
What sounds crazy is exactly that: sometimes crazy, mostly funny - at least Kilian thinks so. But others are not so relaxed about this pact and plan a diabolical conspiracy . . .
