World's Scariest Prisons

from Scholastic Book Fairs Podcast Hosted by Emma Carlson Berne

Explore the most terrifying prisons of all time, from the Roman Coliseum to the Bastille, the Tower of London to Alcatraz. Each prison receives its own photo-intensive overview as well as a sidebar, a break-out fact box, and a quote. Each prison profile is followed by a feature spread that explores high-interest topics such as prison slang, prison clothes, and prison food, as well as little-known details about kids in prison, famous escapees, and ghost stories. Equal parts informative and fun, this is perfect for reluctant readers and tells why prison is to be avoided at all costs!
