Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: "Coraline meets Monsters, Inc. in this delightfully entertaining offering from actor [Jason] Segel and co-author [Kirsten] Miller."âPublishers Weekly
The hilariously frightening, middle-grade novel Nightmares! is a Texas Bluebonnet nominee and the first book in a trilogy about a boy named Charlie and a group of kids who must face their fears to save their town.
Sleeping has never been so scary. And now waking up is even worse!
Â
Charlie Laird has several problems.
Â
1. His dad married a woman he is sure moonlights as a witch.
2. He had to move into her purple mansion, which is NOT a place you want to find yourself after dark.
3.He canât remember the last time sleeping wasnât a nightmarish prospect. Like even a nap.
Â
What Charlie doesnât know is that his problems are about to get a whole lot more real. Nightmares can ruin a good nightâs sleep, but when they start slipping out of your dreams and into the waking worldâthatâs a line that should never be crossed.
Â
And when your worst nightmares start to come true . . . well, thatâs something only Charlie can face. And heâs going to need all the help he can get, or it might just be lights-out for Charlie Laird. For good.
Praise for Nightmares!
Book one is a New York Times bestseller and Texas Bluebonnet nominee!
