- Reading
- If peril in a horror setting may be unsettling, read together and pause to talk through the rides or the brother's condition; the ending's intensity is unclear.
- Themes
- Sibling differences and concern: Blake is presented as avoiding adventure, in contrast with his thrill-seeking brother; the overview connects the carnival to Blake's hope of saving him. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- Blake hopes the carnival may save his comatose brother; the circumstances of his brother’s condition are not described.
