Bizarre Kids Books

3 / 18

From beloved storyteller Maurice Sendak comes Outside Over There, a frightening tale of a young girl forced to rescue her baby sister who has been abducted by goblins. A good choice for parents who are committed to cosleeping until their children are at least 40, this scary book ends on a high note — the baby is found and big sis recommits to caring for her without distraction — but the happy ending doesn't cancel out the trauma of the story.
