What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book's main theme is fear, but it's handled within a purely fantastical, supernatural context. There are no direct engagements with real-world sensitive topics like death, divorce, or illness. The approach is entirely secular. The resolution is hopeful and empowering, with the child protagonists successfully solving the problem on their own.
