Reach for this book when your child is seeking a safe way to explore feelings of fear or is struggling with the 'nothing to do' blues during a visit to relatives. It is an ideal bridge for reluctant readers who are drawn to visual storytelling and high-stakes adventure but may find traditional novels intimidating. In this graphic novel, sisters Mia and Ginny transition from a boring summer at Grandma's to a high-octane battle for survival in a twisted supernatural world. The story centers on bravery and sibling cooperation as they navigate a creepy carousel and a literal upside-down world of monsters. While it delivers the classic Goosebumps 'chills,' the focus remains on resilience and the bond between sisters. It is a perfect pick for ages 8 to 12 who enjoy 'scary-lite' entertainment that prioritizes fun and pacing over true trauma.
