Reach for this book when your child is preparing for their very first sleepover or is struggling with an overactive imagination at bedtime. While many books address fear of the dark, Max Dann's story specifically targets the anxiety of being in an unfamiliar environment. It follows Arthur, a boy who arrives at his friend Lottie's house armed with a 'ghost-fighting kit,' only to find that the creaks and shadows of a new place are far more comical than they are predatory. This chapter book is an excellent bridge for readers aged seven to ten who are ready for a bit of suspense but need the reassurance of humor. By the final page, the 'monsters' are debunked, and Arthur's bravery is celebrated, helping children realize that they have the tools to handle their own worries. It is a comforting, funny choice for normalizing the jitters that come with trying something new.
