Fifteen-year-old Carter Jackson couldn't sleep one night, so he sat on the roof outside his bedroom window. He listened to the creepy sounds of the night and watched bats crisscross overhead. It was at that point that Carter dared himself to take a walk through his neighborhood, even though it was two o'clock in the morning.
Carter had never been out that late before, but the more he thought about it, the more excited he became. His stroll through the dark neighborhood streets was uneventful... until he spotted a dark shadow moving among the trees and bushes. Thankfully, the shadow didn't see him-at first.
That mysterious figure, which scared the daylights out of him, led to a nonstop week-long adventure for Carter and his two friends, Jason Pearl and Tony Topps.
And All Because I Couldn't Sleep One Night is a funny adventure filled with strange humor and moments that make you say, "Okay, that was just weird."
