Description

A modern fairy tale of fear and perception, this story follows the Hope family as a mysterious black dog appears outside their home—seemingly growing larger with every anxious glance. As panic spreads and each family member’s imagination reshapes what they see, the house becomes a battleground for courage, clarity, and the stories we tell ourselves. At the heart of the book is a young protagonist who refuses to be ruled by dread, offering a hopeful counterpoint to the spell fear can cast. With Levi Pinfold’s distinctive, atmospheric storytelling, the book explores how anxiety distorts reality—and how calm, curiosity, and bravery can help break its hold.
