This is the creepiest! It was an excellent book for my son. He loved it! A good plot and an unexpected ending.
goose bumps These books are helping my grandson learn the enjoyment of reading. He was having a hard time, but these books hold his attention and he really looks forward to getting a new one in the series.Calling All Creeps! ISBN 0590568876 - This isn't Stine's best of the Goosebumps series, but it is a nice, quick read and is somewhat amusing. I wouldn't put it high on my list of recommendations, but Stine's hardcore fans will enjoy it.
Ricky Beamer needs his activity hours to graduate sixth grade so when his efforts at the school paper are sabotaged and Tasha, the editor, kicks him off the paper, he's furious. He's been picked on for a long time and this is the final straw. To get his revenge, he sneaks into the school and places a secret message in the paper. It says "Calling all creeps! Call Tasha after midnight!" when he leaves - and when it gets published, it says "Call RICKY" instead!
When the creeps start calling, Ricky's sure who's on the other end - his four enemies, Brenda, Jared, David and Wart. And he's right. What he doesn't know is that he thinks they're creeps, when they're really Creeps - lizard creatures intent on taking over the school - and they think Ricky is their Commander!
As often happens in Stine's books, the ending just doesn't come off right. Throughout the story, Ricky's got one friend, Iris, who seems to disappear at the end, without explanation. Not that most kids will notice that - and the book IS aimed at kids. Still, Stine's done better.
- AnnaLovesBooks2nd to the last book Why did ricky try to play that joke on Tasha? Now the joke's on him-The creeps are crank calling him. and these Creeps are icky lizards. we find out later that Brenda, wart, David are the creeps. They were the ones who planted The Identity seeds. Ricky was forced to place the Identity seeds in the Tuna Surprise. Luckily, nobody eats tuna Surprise. The Creeps plan had failed. Wrong, the Creeps had more and they were going to put it in the cookies when there was Food or bake sale. What will happen to Tasha? Will Ricky get his revenge?
So far so good. like i said this is the 2nd to the last book. This book has 8 pages of pictures like the others i reviwed like TV Book #9 Go eat worms, TV Book #11 Let's get invisible, TV Book #10 Bad hare Day like that. But i wished The goosebumps presents had more pages. My parents did not have a hard time buying Goosebumps Books.
***So keep in mind- The Goosebumps presents has few pages like 59 pages until 60pages. The Original goosebumps has 112-138 pages [as far as i know]. The short original goosebumps Books are for 9-10 years old. The Long Original Goosebumps books are for 11-12 years old. Goosebumps books are still allowed until age 16 [as far as i know]***
Reader Beware- Your i for a scare. Read if you dare!
Happy reading Goosebumps Fans =)Calling all Creeps
If you like monsters and fights and scary stuff then this is the fantasy book for you. The book is Goosebumps calling all creeps. This book is kind of like The Incredible Hulk. Because they are normal people then they turn into monsters. Ricky Beamer has problems like us Jarsed, David, Brenda and Wart bully him and beat him up.
I like this book because kids can turn into big purple lizards and they eat squirrels. I would recommend if you don't like monsters, you might not like reading this book. If you read this book BEWARE of the purple lizards!!!
