Creepy
I remember this book from when I was young, and ordered it. It gave me the creeps then, and now as well.

Kelly's ill-fated trip into the forest to rethink events in her life is interrupted by both the boyfriend she's considering dumping, and by a foul-smelling, aggressive creature which first stalks her, and then violently attacks.

A big part of the reason why the book is so effectively creepy is the accompanying drawings. Grayscale and stark, they're pretty scary. The beast is horrid looking, and I found the drawings which portray the beast from a distance to be really effective, let alone the double-page drawing of Kelly's first sighting of the monster by her campsite. As I recall, the moment I turned the page to that picture when I was young scared the pants off of me.

As all of the Series Canada books, the story is written very simply, and retains a haunting and memorable tone. The matter-of-fact way in which Kelly describes the gruesome skinning of a rabbit for her campsite dinner, and her fright upon encountering a dismembered moose, sets the stage for any number of terrifying outcomes of her encounter with the beast.

The book is short, the book is simple, and was written for the early teenage set, but it retains the spookiness even as I read it as an adult, and I'm happy to have added it to my collection. This book stuck with me after I read it years ago. I never forgot it. ... Read more

Chapters: Ian Craig Marsh, Martyn Ware, Billie Godfrey, Glenn Gregory. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 20. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Ian Craig Marsh (born 11 November 1956, Sheffield, England) is a former English musician. He was a founding member of the electronic band The Human League, writing and playing on their first two albums and several singles, until leaving in 1980 to form B.E.F. (British Electric Foundation) and later Heaven 17. Marsh began in music at Sheffield's council-sponsored community theatre group Meatwhistle. There he met Mark Civico and formed a performance art band called Musical Vomit, taking the name from a music paper's hostile review of the band Suicide. Musical Vomit specialised in Alice Cooper-style stunts, such as vomiting soup onstage, and singing about such topics as masturbation and necrophilia. Marsh played guitar on two shows in 1973 with the band before leaving after his expulsion from school (for being "an undesirable subversive element"). Civico (stage name Trigae Thugg)persevered with Musical Vomit, adding fellow Meatwhistle artists Paul Bower (later of the band 2.3), Glenn Gregory (who went on to become lead singer for Heaven 17) and Ian Reddington, who later found fame as "Tricky Dicky" in Eastenders and Vernon on Coronation Street. Musical Vomit mainly played at the Meatwhistle workshop at Holly Street but during 1974 they also played shows at the Sheffield University Drama Studio and Burngreave Church Hall where they gave their only performance of self penned rock opera "Vomit Lost in Space" which featured early use of primitive synths. Martyn Ware, a leading figure in the Human League and Heaven 17 was an occasional guest on stylophone but formed a more pop orientated off-shoot of Musical Vomit called Underpants.
