The Night Children

(4) 4-6 Lost at the MegaMall, Jule is rescued by the "night children" who secretly live there. Working together, they discover the mall's secrets (e.g., why parents disappear and no one cares). Jule seems irrelevant to the plot, but the night children are compelling. The use of present-tense narration makes for a creepy, unsettling read.
