Summary: Morbid-tastic
Comment: "The Gashlycrumb Tinies" details the gruesome/improbable fates of Amy to Zillah in the style of a childrens' alphabet book. However, it's definitely not for children young enough to be learning the alphabet, unless you want them to have nightmares or to turn out really creepy. That being said, if you have an irreverent and quirky sense of humor, you'll find it hilarious. And, you'll learn to be careful not to be done in by a thug or die of ennui. Really.

Summary: The Gashleycrumb Tinies
Comment: The Gashleycrumb Tinies is macabre yet hilarious. It's about children meeting untimely absurd demise but with a sense of dark humor. it needs to be taken the way it is meant. It really is quite clever with the wording and causes of death It is done by alphabetical names. examples are S in for Susan who perished of fits, L is for Leo who swallowed some tacks and N is for Neville who died of ennui(boredome). See very clever. By the way I am a 38 year old mother of two and find this hilarious. My kids don't really get it though. Oh well I geuss their sense of humor is not as developed as mine:)

Summary: Hilarious for ages 11+!
Comment: Hahahha I actually read this online because its so short... if you want to take a break from the stress of life for 10 minutes its great fun. The illustrations are very well done and the rhymes are genuis! i think my favorite kid is Basil who was assaulted by bears.. \hahhahhahha... that makes me burst into laughter again! seriously, if you like macabre hilarity, take a few minutes off and ENJOY THIS BOOK! (There is no graphic or adult images but the ideas would be very frightening for young children. I say 11+ because theres a girl with an axe in her head and some blood thats cartoonish but gross.)
