A sleepover that keeps starting over

Sydney arrives at a wildlife-center birthday sleepover already uneasy: she was added to a party for kids she barely knows, in a cabin near wolf enclosures. Then a wolf-like creature emerges from the woods, and the night resets. The repeating evening gives this middle-grade adventure two linked puzzles—the cause of the time loop and the identity of the creature—while Sydney searches for a way to reach morning. Its setting brings the social awkwardness of an unwanted-feeling party together with a creature-in-the-woods mystery.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Middle-grade readers who enjoy time-loop adventures.
  • Readers interested in spooky wildlife-center settings and creature mysteries.
  • Readers who like stories about navigating an awkward gathering with unfamiliar peers.

Book overview

A girl stuck in a time loop repeatedly relives an awkward sleepover at a wildlife center with a wolf-like monster in the woods in this fun and creepy middle grade adventure.

When Sydney heads to a sleepover birthday party at a wildlife center, she's sure it's a terrible idea. Not only because she'll be staying in a creepy cabin surrounded by wolf enclosures, but because she wasn't actually invited to the party. Instead, her mom asked Ari's mom if Sydney could join, and now she's crashing the event with a group of kids she barely knows. Ugh.

It turns out she isn't the only party crasher when a strange, wolf-like creature bounds out of the woods and throws the night into chaos. In the rush to escape, Sydney hits her head, is knocked out cold...and wakes up back in the car, headed to the party.

Sydney realizes she's living the same night again and again and again. Why is the evening stuck in a loop, and what is the creature prowling around the center? And--most importantly--how can she break the loop and finally see the morning?
