Summary

In this spinoff to the New York Times–bestselling Goosebumps series, a tween goes to an amusement park and brings home an enchanted mannequin. 
 
Ray Gordon loves to scare his younger brother, Brandon. It’s not hard considering Brandon is terrified of everything—loud noises, roller coasters, and especially the wooden dummy, Slappy, that Ray got from the HorrorLand theme park gift shop. Then Ray’s parents warn him that he will not be able to throw his big New Year’s Eve if he doesn’t stop teasing Brandon. But strange, mean-spirited things keep happening to his little brother, and Slappy always seems to be around for it. Could that spell Ray read out loud actually have brought the dummy to life?
Available since: 03/31/2015.

    "Tom, Tom, the piper's son, 
    Stole a pig and away he run; 
    The pig was eat and Tom was beat 
    And Tom ran crying down the street." Why did Tom steal that pig? Was he a bad boy? Not according to the story behind this rhyme. Tom was the only son of a good for nothing man who could only play the pipes and that very badly. Little Tom was forced to steal food for his father and himself as they travelled around the country. Was he beaten? oh yes, he was and very soundly by the owner of the little pig that he stole. But he learned his lesson and became a good citizen from then on. Listen to this tale and get a chuckle now and then because it is very droll.
