What the heck is that thing??? I love that you didn’t show it, made it so much scarier. Also trying not to cry, poor little Emmy😭

I was not as well-behaved as Emmy I would've started raising hell as soon as Rosie was kidnapped! Excellent stuff EJ.

The tent and the stuffies and it was so fun reading from a kids perspective!

That was terrifying! Well done.

Ooo, I was heartbroken when the stuffies were taken (I loved my stuffies so when I was a kid, and I might still have a teddy bear named Baba - ok, I do!). But I didn’t anticipate Emmy herself being collected! I want to know more!
