Reach for this book when your child is facing a new environment, like a first sleepover or a visit to an unfamiliar relative's house, and is feeling anxious about strange noises or shadows. This story follows Bub the pug and Duchess the cat as they navigate their fears in a grandmother's attic, which they initially believe is haunted. It perfectly validates that even the smallest, most nervous among us can find bravery when they want to protect someone they love. Written in a diary format with vibrant illustrations, it is specifically designed for newly independent readers aged 5 to 7. It turns a common childhood fear of ghosts into a humorous, manageable experience. Parents will appreciate how it models teamwork and the idea that things are often much less scary once we take a closer look.
