This is a chilling story of a girl who was unhappy about playing with her dolls until one day she became one of them...
I am 28 years old when I read Among the Dolls and boy this gives me the creeps! I became a fan of William Sleator after I read The House of Stairs.
Neil Gaiman's Coraline is similar to this one, so if you love it I recommend this to you. ( )

A Twilight-Zone-ish story about a young girl whose parents buy her a dollhouse. In some inexplicable way she becomes one of the dolls, or rather, she finds herself inside the dollhouse - a prisoner of the menacing dolls. Not much is actually explained, but it will intrigue young readers (8 or 9 y.o.) It will probably freak out anyone younger so -- beware! ( )

This deliciously dark tale will make you look twice at that dollhouse in the corner. The parallel family inside is not always as sweet as they seem.
A great partner to Gaiman's Coraline. ( )

As creepy as any of Sleator's work with an unsatisfying ending. ( )

This book is definitely creepy. And is made all the more creepy by the amazing illustrations--I spent just as much time looking at the illustrations as I did reading the book. ( )
