"Like Alvin Schwartz’s Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, this title shows promise of being read and retold again and again by this generation’s thrill-seekers." — School Library Journal (starred review) "Twenty different entries, with atmospheric illustrations, create new yet classic-feeling tales for younger readers... Ideal for any younger reader looking for bite-sized horror." — Kirkus Reviews "The sheer variety of creepy concepts, unsettling moments interspersed with humor, and gotcha twists will appeal to younger middle grade readers who are ready for a gateway into horror fiction—and a book to read around the campfire." — Publishers Weekly "Given the range of stories and formats, this is a strong choice for both horror fiends and those just wanting to dip their toes into scarier waters." — Booklist "Hide and Don't Seek is a Halloween goody bag full of treats–and not a few tricks–that will appeal to any young reader with an appetite for thrills ‘n chills. Certain to be a gateway drug to Stephen King." — Portland Press Herald
