Annotated Bibliography

Chapters: My Growth as a Writer.  Boston: Little, Brown, 1982.
Lois Duncan tells her own life story by sharing some of the stories she wrote when she was young.  She begins with one of the first stories she ever made up when she was she in kindergarten.  (Her teacher did not believe her and embarrassed Lois; it was years before Lois trusted another teacher.)   You’ll read some of Lois’ stories that she published as a teen, and some of her first stories, she published as a young woman.  (MK)

  Locked in Time.  Boston:  Little, Brown, 1985.
When Nore Robbins arrives at Shadow Grove, her stepmother’s old family home, Nore has an eerie feeling that something is drastically wrong.  There’s something very mysterious about the way her step-brother and sister keep referring to events that occurred long before they were born.  Creaking in the house, a hint of Cajun voodoo magic, and Nore’s dreams of her dead mother create an atmosphere of suspense, mystery, and the supernatural. (BS)

Summer of Fear.  New York:  Dell, 1976.
Rachel knows she should feel sorry for her cousin Julia whose parents have been killed in an accident.  However, a cloud of mystery seems to surround Julia, and Rachel and her dog are the only ones who sense danger. Everyone else falls under Julia’s spell, including Rachel’s boyfriend.  (BS)
