"Coraline meets Monsters, Inc. in this delightfully entertaining offering from actor [Jason] Segel and co-author [Kirsten] Miller."-Publishers 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.
Charlie Laird has several problems.
1. His dad married a woman he is sure moonlights as a witch. 2. He had to move into her purple mansion-the creepiest place in Cypress Creek. 3. He can't remember the last time sleeping wasn't a nightmarish prospect. Like even a nap.
What Charlie doesn't know is that his problems are about to get a whole lot more real. Nightmares can ruin a good night's sleep, but when they start slipping out of your dreams and into the waking world . . . well, that's something only Charlie can face. And he's going to need all the help he can get, or it might just be lights-out for Charlie Laird.
For good.

Usually I go to the library to 'hunt' for books for my son (after all it's his library card), but sometimes I get lucky to snatch a book I want to read by myself, as was the case with this title. I first became aware of the book when the German edition was advertised in a local bookstore, and back then I put it on my 'maybe' shelf, which usually means it remains there for eternity. Unless...unless I find a marked down or library copy.
The book: the plot was interesting enough, but I...
