Good Story, But No Goosebumps.
Unlike the first several books in the series and many of the books that were to come in the Goosebumps 2000 series, this book really wasn't very spooky or scary. Jordan and his sister Nicole get to go to Alaska with their Dad because he has been paid to photograph an Abominable Snowman. Jordan and his sister are besides themselves because they have never seen snow and now they are going to be able to see it for the first time. However, while staying in a cabin in the frozen northern wilderness, the family's guide takes off with all the family's food and supplies while the Dad is taking some pictures of a frozen stream. The kids chase the guide, but end up getting lost and fall into the lair of the Abominable Snowman.
The story flows together really smoothly and there aren't any plotholes. There are a few things that don't make too much sense, however. And the story is not scary at all, leaving me without any goosebumps. Still it's a good story and makes for a decent read. Not R.L. Stine's greatest, but not too shabby, either.
And You Thought The Monster Under The Bed Was Scary!
You're starting to really hate Pasadena because of the very, but I mean very hot weather. You've got three ideas to chose from.
(A) Live in the fridge. (B) Visit the Abom.inable Snowman. (C) Think of Snow. If you chosed B, you're correct! That was what Jordan and Nicole did. What do you do when you have snow from the Abominable Snowman's cave? You get rid of it, that's what! Read this book to give yourself Goosebumps!
DOES NOT GIVE ME GOOSEBUMPS
This book was okay. It was a really sad plot and what happened to the pictures he took of it and what happened to Kara? I didn't like this book as much as the others. (Why don't you jump on over to R. L. Stines other book: "The Warewolf of Fever Swamp". (A young) reader from New Hampshire)
