Twins Colm and Mal are less than thrilled when their mom moves them from Dallas to Chicago. Things get interesting, however, after they discover they can visit a ghostly parallel dimension via their new apartment building. The ghosts' personalities and the crackly atmosphere they inhabit are well drawn, and Colm and Mal's race to break a curse lends urgency to the plot.

Brian unexpectedly finds himself spending his summer with his cousin Nora and her family in Boring, Illinois. And boring it is, until the kids make an amazing discovery in the woods: an incredible seven-story, dilapidated maze of a house inhabited by a delightfully eccentric family. This inventive story is action packed and delivers an entertaining, wild adventure.

Anxious about his father's job security and a school bully, fourth-grader Felix finds his dreams overrun with terrifying monsters. Then he meets the Other Felix, his dream counterpart, who teaches Felix how to fight his fears in both worlds. The symbolism-heavy story oversells its message, but the book's take on bibliotherapy is creative.
