HTML:<b>"</b><i>Coraline</i> meets <i>Monsters, Inc.</i> in this delightfully entertaining offering from actor [Jason] Segel and co-author [Kirsten] Miller."—<i>Publishers Weekly</i><b><i><br /></i>The hilariously frightening, middle-grade novel <i>Nightmares!</i> 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.</b><br /> Sleeping has never been so scary. And now waking up is even worse!<br /> &#160;<br /> Charlie Laird has several problems.<br /> &#160;<br /> 1. His dad married a woman he is sure moonlights as a witch.<br /> 2. He had to move into her purple mansion, which is NOT a place you want to find yourself after dark.<br /> 3.He can’t remember the last time sleeping wasn’t a nightmarish prospect. Like even a nap.<br /> &#160;<br /> 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—that’s a line that should never be crossed.<br /> &#160;<br /> And when your worst nightmares start to come true . . . 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.
