About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is nervous about an upcoming sleepover or starting to experiment with making up their own scary stories. This special edition of the popular series helps bridge the gap between being a little bit afraid and having a lot of fun. It normalizes the 'scary-fun' feelings of nighttime adventures while modeling how friends can support each other through imagination and humor. Set during a playground campout, the story follows A.J. and his friends as they swap silly-spooky tales. It is an excellent choice for reluctant readers who benefit from short chapters, frequent illustrations, and a satirical tone that pokes fun at the 'weird' world of adults. Beyond the story, the included puzzles and games offer a shared activity that can turn a stressful bedtime into a playful bonding experience.
