The Ghost-Eye Tree by John Archambault, Bill Martin
5.0
This is marvelously spooky book for young readers. When I first learned to read, this book is what got me hooked on reading. I remember it being so strongly imprinted in my mind, that I would be thinking of the "ghost-eye" tree as I played in my backyard. I even remember speculating as to what made it have a ghost-eye, and whether it was haunted, and by what spirit. Very fond memories of childhood.
For adults, it does a beautiful job of reminding us of that innocent time where we were scared of monsters under the bed, as opposed to all the "true" horrors we read about in the daily news.
