The melancholy death of oyster boy and other stories by Tim Burton I love me some Tim Burton which is why I jumped when I saw this book. Interesting may not be the right word to describe this book. But it was a quick read (lol).  The book is various stories that may not all have a connection just the same creepiness. He focuses a lot on children … weird children. I was bit taken back because I though the stories would be longer, more in dept and detailed. Some of them were just poems that rhymed.  Oh and there are also pictures to go with these short stories too … Think Nightmare before Christmas  I give the book 5 out of 10. That is because I hyped it too much.
