As a small gift for teachers who're enlightened enough to run a wide-ranging class library at top junior/lower secondary level, there's The Magnet Book of Strange Tales. This might be doubly welcomed because if they flick through it before dropping it into the book box they might find three or four useful read-alouds to spice up their lessons. Class library users will no doubt grab it for its cover and then be further amazed to find it's a book of supernatural stories that they can actually read.
