If sideshows or just weird stories interest you, this is a good one to breeze through in an afternoon. Ten original short stories and comics about bearded girls, fortune tellers, and mummy girls. Each story is well written and engaging, although kind of predicatble in that Twilight Zone way. My favorites: "The Bearded Girl" (Aimee Bender), "When God Came to Kathleen's Garden" (David Almond) "Jargo!" (Matt Phelan) and "The Bread Box" (Cecil Casellucci), though every one of them are unique (and odd) in their own special way. More fiction like this would be great. A sequel? ( )
