Aimed at all those with an interest in folk tales, real-life ghost stories and horror, this beautifully illustrated book offers scary legends and folklore from Canada to Mexico and from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast, including Native American tales, settlers’ stories and African-American legends, as well as ghost stories, urban legends and modern tales of cryptids and aliens.
Shake in your shoes as you read about the Camazotz of Mexico, large man-bats that hunt humans in packs; La Corriveau of Quebec, a woman hanged for murder and witchcraft, who runs through the night in her gibbet chasing her victims; the Ghost Moose of Maine, which entices hunters to pursue it until they perish from some woodland accident or die of starvation ... and many, many more!

There are lots of reasons teens retreat to their rooms. They might be gaming, obsessed with digital social lives, feeling self-conscious, or they might just be asserting their independence. This book offers concrete tips on how you can maintain a good relationship and support your teen’s wellbeing despite that often-closed bedroom door, including: a focus on real-world wins and small actions to build connection; the blueprint for how to get a reluctant teen to spend time with you (and why it really matters that you persevere); tips on how to communicate effectively (without nagging!); strategies for tackling tricky issues like compulsive gaming, obsessive phone use and social anxiety; an honest look at the difficult emotions that parents experience when our child turns into a teen and starts pushing us away. This book will help you be the parent your teenager needs so you can both rise to the challenges of the teenage years.

We engage with our phones on average 2,617 times per day ... but what could we gain if we unplugged? Driven by a growing feeling of anxiety, and guided by her faith, Hannah Brencher set herself a challenge: 1,000 device-free hours across 365 days.
This book contains everything she learned, from how to recognize the warning signs of phone over-reliance to unplugging long-term. Hannah inspires readers to make small, attainable changes through 20 meditations on key themes, including how insecurity feeds digital addiction, the importance of truly connecting with others, learning to be alone and appreciating the beauty of everyday life. This is not a book about pursuing the unrealistic goal of ditching technology. It is about the wonderful things that can happen when we untether ourselves from our devices and live a life more present.
