Piri is a city girl, but every year she goes to visit her grandmother Babi on her farm in the Ukrainian village of Komjaty. There is a lot that Piri finds strange, even scary, in Komjaty, such as the ghost in the form of a rooster who supposedly haunts the cemetery! But Piri loves country life: making corn bread, eating plums right off the tree, venturing out with her grandmother in the early morning to hunt for mushrooms. And during her time with Babi, Piri learns lessons that will stay with her all of her life, about the importance of honest hard work, of caring for the less fortunate, and of having the courage to stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves. In these nine stories, Aranka Siegal paints a tender portrait of the love between a grandmother and granddaughter, inspired by her own experiences with her grandmother.

Nothing to Be Afraid Of may be the title of this collection of stories, but nearly all the stories do have something rather frightening in them. At least, they are frightening for the characters within them because the horrors which they’ve imagined simply won’t go away. They are the kind of horrors that follow you upstairs in the dark and slide under the bed, and there they stay... Ten scary, darkly funny stories about the strangeness beneath the surface of everyday life, from acclaimed author Jan Mark.
