The Halloween Fair's in town, but the main attraction for Kelly isn't the ghost train or the toffee apples, but Gary, a boy in her class she really likes. The problem is that her mom doesn't like her going anywhere by herself. But mum's advice suddenly doesn't sound so stupid when you're walking home at night and hear footsteps behind you... The Siti's Sisters Series are a series of multicultural fiction books designed to have particular appeal to girls. Each story has around 1200 - 1500 words and is ideal for reluctant readers. The books are designed to appeal to girls aged 10 - 14 with a reading age of 7 - 8 years. Siti has four really, really good mates: Donna, Lu, Kelly and Rachel. They have been friends forever and are so close that Siti calls them her Sisters; and that's how they think of themselves. The books are illustrated in black-and-white throughout, and the tightly controlled vocabulary and compelling, convincing stories will stimulate reading amongst poorer readers. - from Amzon
