Newsletter extras and linked-to documents will usually have content warnings, but you are the best judge for what is appropriate for your child. The views and descriptions within this book and the newsletter extras are those of their individual creators and do not represent the views of the San Diego Public Library. https://sandiego.librarymarket.com/event/frankenstein-spooky-email-serial-401659
