EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT NIGHTMARES! AND HOW TO DEFEAT THEM (Nightmares! Companion) by Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller with Karl Kwasny (illustrations) is a really enjoyable read.

This book does not really have a plot or list of characters because it is more of a handbook or guide to the nightmare realm with an easy to use guide to look up exactly what kind of monster or creature that seem to hide within your dreams. There are a few short stories throughout about the characters who appear from the nightmares which help to explain them better which is perfect for any parent.

Kwasny has created amazing artwork throughout this beautifully designed book that is very detailed and graphic. A perfect way to help describe the characters or creatures that you may find in your dreams. My favorite part is where the authors compare nightmares with the real life situations and give helpful tips on how to get rid of that situation, everything from fear to bullies. The nighty check lists provide you with a list of what to do before bedtime with places and things to skip. The pro tip section gives you neat and helpful advice on how to stop the nightmares. Also, there are fun facts that are sure to peak your interest. The field notes section in the back of the book is perfect for notes on how to deal with your nightmares and you can also keep track of your dreams.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT NIGHTMARES! AND HOW TO DEFEAT THEM is the perfect bedside addition to any child's nightstand. A great way to help parents when dealing with the awful and scary dreams or nightmares that some children have. I feel this would make a great gift to any child or new parents. Overall, a fun read that everyone is sure to love.
