Though this community is far from being popular, I'd like to make a little announcement and, in fact, to ask you something.
In four weeks will be Halloween. Would you be willing to participate by presenting us 1, 2, 3, 4 children books of ghosts', horror or wizzards' stories ?
I'd be delighted to see some of *your* collections, and I'll, on my part, be presenting different books during this month.
Hence I declare october the ghosts' stories' month !

[please reply if you like the idea :)]
