- Reading
- Read together in short stretches and pause when a new clue appears: invite your reader to compare what Chris believes with what the other characters suggest.
- Themes
- Magic or rational explanation: Chris suspects magic after his bicycle disappears; his science-minded brother argues that there is a rational explanation, while clues point towards a figure Chris thinks is a warlock. The book leaves its stance open to more than one reading.
- Worth knowing
- Halloween, a shadowy suspected warlock and references to magic and witchcraft give the mystery a spooky atmosphere; consider how your reader responds to suspenseful uncertainty.
