    About this ebook

    Spooky Little Book
    Book 4 in the Little Book Series
    A poetry collection by Claire Buss

    Hubble bubble, toil and trouble
    What are we putting in it this time?
    Is it the potion for indigestion
    Or the one to get rid of the dust

    Eye of newt and toe of bat
    Or rather some shrivelled old apples
    And some leftover sausage
    Should work just the same

    Mum. Poet. Lover of cake. Claire Buss’s Spooky Little Book is a collection of Halloween-themed poetry celebrating everything spine-tingling and scary. Hide behind the sofa, watch out for the monsters under the bed and stock up on candy – you’re going to need it!

    Spooky Little Book is the fourth poetry collection in the Little Book Series.

    Claire Buss is a science fiction, fantasy & contemporary writer based in the UK. She wanted to be Lois Lane when she grew up but work experience at her local paper was eye-opening.

An avid reader, baker and pinterest addict Claire won second place in the Barking and Dagenham Pen to Print writing competition in 2015 setting her writing career in motion. The Gaia Effect was published in 2016 and Tales from Suburbia in 2017.

      First time you wrote a joke? I was four years old. My family still torments me about it: “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Smoke.” “Smoke who?” “Smoke eat.” It makes zero sense and everyone laughed at me, not with me. Last time you got a bad haircut? In

      Spooky Little Book, (Little Book Series, #4) - Claire Buss

      Wait! What's that?

      It ran under the mat

      There's nothing there now

      Out the corner of my eye

      Several legs wave goodbye

      Did I imagine that scuttle?

      I'm sitting on edge

      My feet on a ledge

      In case it comes to get me

      A web suddenly appears

      Increasing my fears

      That we've been invaded

      They're good for the flies

      But that doesn't stop the cries

      As I run and hide

      He's black and hairy

      Most definitely scary

      And he lives in my flat

      I won't ask him to leave

      Not even say please

      As long as he doesn't eat me

      Don't walk on my face

      Or build a web in my space

      And I'll let you stay

      Otherwise it's a glass trap

      While you take a nap

      And hubby will take you outside

      Monster Under My Bed

      There's a monster under my bed

      It's alright, his name is Fred

      He likes to play with the dust
