The Cursed Moon by Angela Cervantes
4.0
I received a galley of this book at the ALA conference.
This is a perfectly scary book for middle grade. Rafa is a well developed character, and his family life is relatable to many kids in America. His mom is incarcerated in prison and will be released soon for good behavior. Rafa and his sister have been living with their grandparents. Rafa loves to tell scary stories. When Rafa tells scary stories on a blood red moon the scary stories come to life and the caretaker is coming to him! Just enough spooky to leave readers leaving the light on at night. I would give this to fans of Ellen Oh or Linsday Currie.
