Reach for this book when your child is navigating the tricky waters of sibling rivalry, social pressure, or the fear of staying true to oneself while chasing big dreams. It is particularly helpful for kids who feel the weight of family expectations or are trying to find their unique voice within a friend group. The story follows Cleo de Nile and her friends on a high-stakes trip to the big city, where they must balance the excitement of a glitzy gala with a sinister plot involving forced promises and a literal world-ending comet. While the setting is fantastical and 'ghoulish,' the core of the book is about loyalty and the courage to say no to those who want to control you. Parents will appreciate the way it models standing up to manipulative family members and the importance of supporting friends through creative blocks. It is a light, fun read for the 6 to 10 age range that balances spooky-cool aesthetics with meaningful lessons about integrity and self-expression.
