Reach for this book when your child is feeling the social pressure of joining a new group or expresses anxiety about fitting in at summer camp. While it is a supernatural thriller, it speaks directly to the 'new kid' experience and the fear of being left out of inside jokes or traditions. Harry and Alex arrive at Camp Spirit Moon only to find the veteran campers performing bizarre rituals and dangerous stunts. As the 'jokes' escalate, the brothers must decide whether to follow the crowd or trust their instincts. It is a fast-paced, spooky read for ages 8 to 12 that uses horror as a metaphor for the social discomfort of navigating peer groups. Parents will appreciate how it validates the very real anxiety of being an outsider, wrapped in a classic campfire ghost story.
