Review
In this book, six spine-tingling experiences await you: 1) In Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, you'll visit a sun-baked garden in India, where silent death lurks in the tall grass;
2) in The Monkey's Paw, you'll be given a gift of three wishes you'll wish you hadn't received;
3) in Leiningen Versus the Ants, on a lush plantation in Brazil, you'll battle an army of tiny soldiers who turn a man into a skeleton in the blink of an eye;
4) in The Lady, or the Tiger?, your fate will hang in the hands of a friend who just might wish you dead;
5) in To Build a Fire, deep in the frozen Yukon north, you'll confront a danger that's beyond human understanding, and
6) in The Most Dangerous Game, on a tropical island, you'll meet a charming fellow who loves to hunt - and who has you in mind as his target. --From the Publisher
