⭐ The 28th entry in R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps series is among the most genuinely terrifying yarns for young readers. The main storyline, about an flawed cuckoo clock that distorts the flow of time for a young boy named Michael, is creepy enough, but it’s Michael’s family life that is truly terrifying. Michael’s younger sister, Tara, is a born psychopath, and whenever she’s in focus, I felt nothing but discomfort.R.L. Stine once mentioned the cuckoo clock of the title provided his favorite scenario. It’s a great one!: An antique cuckoo clock, built in 1800, is sold cheaply due to a mysterious ‘flaw’ it took the owners 15 years to find. It’s never quite explained what happened; just left to the imagination as the story continues to unfold. Like Stine’s ‘Monster Blood,’ the cuckoo clock’s powers border on nebulous, but in this case it adds to the mystery (like, why does the year counter end in the year 3000?).Once the cuckoo clock comes into their family’s possession, Michael thinks he can play a trick on his sister to finally get even with her. For years, he’s been the butt of her malice, and every day brings some vicious prank at his expense (whether it be ruining his birthday presents, embarrassing him in front of his crush and all her friends, or even getting him beaten to a pulp by bullies). His plan is to make it look like Tara broke the mechanical cuckoo bird so that when the hours strike, its entrance is underwhelming. It’s a small prank to play on such a hateful person.When he wakes up the next morning, Michael finds himself reliving the awful birthday party Tara ruined 2 weeks earlier. Day after day, Michael uncontrollably relives random days, moving further and further back in time. The cuckoo clock is no longer in their possession, and he’s much too young to find it on his own or convince anyone of his time travel predicament. It was a creative approach to time travel stories, and the cuckoo clock itself is an interesting, creepy invention on Stine’s part.Tara, though….She proudly bears her nickname (‘Tara the Terrible’) in torturing Michael every minute of the day — and it’s not sibling rivalry, it’s pure malice and delight in his pain that drives her to hurt her own brother. To grow up with her as close family would be a nightmare akin to We Need to Talk About Kevin’s eponymous psychopath. She’s truly the scariest thing from any Goosebumps novel.

⭐ This one has always been a favorite of mine for many years, it was in brand new condition and the cover is the original illustration. Its a must have for people who like collecting stuff and reading. Its mainly a kids book tho so if you have little kids the Goosebumps series will be perfect to read to them or get them interested in books at a early age

⭐ Good book, good copy, takes me back to my childhood years

⭐ pretty good, but not great

⭐ If you are looking for the ORIGINAL Goosebumps Cuckoo Clock of Doom, BEWARE! You will be “doomed” if you buy this one by mistake, and may even feel you are going “cukoo!” But if you WANTED the short TV version, you will be very happy! Just pay more attention to the full title than I did…. By the way, not the seller’s fault!

⭐ Very good

⭐ This book was great. I always loved the books where someone gets transported back in time and changes age. I especially liked how R.L. Stine wrote the boys struggle in the baby body. How no one would let him out of there site and no one would let him fix the mistake. Overall I loved it

⭐ Arrived quickly and as described

⭐ More aged than expected pages were all yellow but readable and my son was glad to have this one

⭐ My granddaughter loves these books and she like reading them to me.
