Reach for this book when your child is starting to navigate the social pressure of appearing brave or fearless even when they are secretly feeling overwhelmed by new anxieties. This interactive horror story follows Craig, a self proclaimed brave boy who is put to the test through a series of increasingly spooky challenges. By placing the reader in the shoes of someone trying to maintain a tough exterior, the story opens a door for parents to discuss the difference between true courage and the performance of fearlessness. It is a quintessential piece of middle grade horror that uses supernatural thrills to mirror the very real social stakes of middle school. While the scares are designed for the 8 to 12 age range, it serves as a safe container for children to explore their own thresholds for fear within a controlled, fictional environment.
