What books to read? It’s the question many parents puzzle over. Finding appropriate stories for kids can be a real challenge for both young people and their parents. That’s where the Mom’s Choice Awards comes in.

“Matt Monroe and the Haunted House,” by Edward Torba (All Points Press, Trade Paperback, $12.99, ISBN 13: 978-0000000000) is a book for middle schoolers that was recently named a Gold Award Recipient by the Mom’s Choice Awards.

“Matt Monroe and the Haunted House” is the story of about a 14-year-old boy from southwestern Pennsylvania, who is confronted by an evil entity.

The book’s characters are beautifully flawed, their intentions blurred just enough to make readers wonder where their true allegiance lies.
