It is said that "A good book is the precious life blood of a master spirit". Reading books is my favourite hobby. My favourite books are the Famous Five series by Enid Blyton. These are stories of mystery and adventure involving young children.

Recently I read one of this series, Five Go Off in a Caravan. In this story, sometimes there is fun, sometimes horror, sometimes sorrow and sometimes there is stirring adventure. There are the five central characters – Julian, Dick, Georgiana, Anne and their pet dog Timmy. They all go for a picnic in a caravan to a hill. Here a circus was camping. There were many animals in the circus, which became very friendly with the five children. But there were two men in the circus who were clowns, and even though their work was to make others laugh, their intentions were wicked. How will the Five cope with the villains? Read the book and discover its secrets for yourself!

GOOSEBUMPS is a name that evokes horror and fear in our minds. This book is one of the most popular in the world and it has made its own place in the shelves of libraries worldwide. Written by the famous author R L Stine, the series have two editions. The first one is titled GIVE YOURSELF GOSEBUMPS which consists of many thrilling choices where a single wrong option may lead to death! The other one, titled GOOSEBUMPS is loaded with nightmares, dreadful events, scary places and creatures with which we have to struggle and learn to survive.

These series of books are over overloaded with fear and threat. You can pick up any one and lose yourself into their weird worlds. But remember, choosing the right option is necessary for your survival. The moment you choose the incorrect option will be the last moment of your life. One of them is Return to The Carnival in which a few friends accept challenges for games of life and death. If you win then life is your gift and death lies in choosing the incorrect option. So choose if you dare!
