A review by mamabearian
The Dark by Lemony Snicket

3.0

Laszlo is afraid of the dark, but the dark lives in the same house as him. During the day, it is confined to a specific corner of the basement, but at night, the dark spreads. It has never visited him before, because Laszlo always keeps the dark at bay with his flashlight. But one night, his flashlight goes out, and the dark is there. Many young children will understand Laszlo's fear, and will like the slight humor thrown in at the end.
