R.L. Stine began his writing career at the age of nine and has been at it ever since, becoming a bestselling author several times over. Among his many groundbreaking credits are Fear Street, the first young adult horror series, and Goosebumps, the bestselling series that made Stine the #1 bestselling author in America for three years in a row. He lives with his wife in New York City.
With the balance between playful horror and truly spine-tingling spookiness, Stine pulls together a comprehensive introduction to the horror genre for kids, much as he has done for years with Goosebumps.
