'Everybody knew Donald Doing's House of Verbs was the place to go to look for action. He had boom boxes for dancing, hat boxes for sashaying and treasure chests for buccaneering. But when little Nora Noisler asks for his help, Donald has to think outside the box to come up with a solution.' (Publication summary)
1 y separately published work icon Choose Your Own Death Marianna Shek , Australia : Rock on Kitty Publications , 2015 8700738 2015 single work children's fiction children's horror

'Goultown. The sort of place where kids could walk down the street in the middle of the night. Or accept sweets from strangers because strangers were just friends you hadn't met yet. A place where grown-ups got tattoos of smiley faces and if kids graffitied, they were sure to do smiley faces too. That was before the murders began. After Sally Ellerson drowns at the chocolate factory, there are only five kids left in Goultown. Something weird is going on. It's time to take charge. Choose Your Own Death is a path-picking adventure where every wrong turn unleashes an eldritch evil. If you don't solve the mystery soon, the next death could be yours.'
