Reach for this book when your child starts seeing monsters in the shadows or feels paralyzed by the unknown bumps in the night. It is an ideal tool for children who have vivid imaginations that occasionally turn against them, transforming ordinary backyard trees into scary creatures. The story follows a young boy named Leo who is convinced a monster is watching him from the woods, only to discover a much more logical explanation. This short chapter book brilliantly validates a child's fear without dismissing it, while gently guiding them toward rational thinking and bravery. It is perfect for 7 to 10 year olds who are transitioning to independent reading but still need support navigating nighttime anxiety. By reading this together, you can open up a dialogue about how our minds play tricks on us and how to face those 'shadow monsters' with a bit of courage and investigation.
