Letter: Tales of horror
Sir: May one suggest a few more plots to be included in the horror books for children ("Why young readers turn to little horrors", 25 August)? One would be of an old woman living in the woods who devours young people, while another concerns a wolf eating a grandmother and preying on her granddaughter.
Even better is one about a man with a whistle going round a town kidnapping all the children, but I dare say that would run into trouble with the police.
