Bloomsbury presents The Hungry Forest by Kaela Rivera, read by André Santana

In this fast-paced middle grade horror for fans of SMALL SPACES, a boy must confront his grief and save his younger brother from a cursed forest.

Ryan’s dad had a lot of rules:
Never let others see you cry.
Never let people outside of the family hear you speaking Spanish.
But the most important rule of all? Never go into the hungry forest.

Since his father’s death, Ryan has worked extra hard to follow his father’s rules and be the kind of man his father would be proud of. But Ryan's anger is getting out of control, and he can't seem to stop taking it out on his younger brother Teddy.

When Teddy and Ryan think they hear their father calling them from The Hungry Forest, Ryan ventures in. Teddy was supposed to wait outside, but he didn't listen, and is quickly captured by a terrifying, masked monster.

With no sign of Dad and monsters closing in, one thing is clear: The forest is as cursed as the legends say. If Ryan can't find his brother and escape the woods before sunrise, they'll be trapped there forever. Ryan and Teddy will have to face their fears—and each other—to make it out alive.©2026 Kaela Rivera (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Competenze sociali e per la vita Crescita e fatti della vita Emozioni e sentimenti Fratelli Letteratura e narrativa Storie del terrore Vita familiare

Recensioni della critica

Kaela Rivera's The Hungry Forest is a deeply imaginative, spooky story that is rooted in real family dynamics and authentic emotions. Young readers will connect with and root for Ryan and Teddy as they fight to survive an impossible forest and its weird inhabitants (and maybe make some friends along the way). The Hungry Forest belongs in schools and libraries and on the shelves of young readers who love a sometimes-scary, heartfelt adventure. I'll be handing this one to my own kids.
The best horror stories don't just scare you. They heal you. Not only does The Hungry Forest get that—it does that.
I love this book. The monsters in The Hungry Forest rock. Spooks and scares with a classic feel, plus a story brimming with real heart and hope. I'll be seeing these monsters and thinking about Ryan and Teddy for a long, long time.
Lyrical and immersive, The Hungry Forest hooks you from the first page. Rivera masterfully balances horror and heart in this high-stakes, fast-paced story of two brothers navigating unprocessed grief and learning that it’s okay to be vulnerable.
Kaela Rivera delivers a chilling, fast-paced tale that pulses with real emotional depth. The Hungry Forest is as terrifying as it is tender, grappling with grief, brotherhood, and the dangerous lessons boys inherit about what it means to be “strong.” Readers will race through its haunted shadows, rooting for Ryan and Teddy every step of the way. With nuanced Latinx representation and unforgettable scares, this novel lingers long after the final page. A gripping, resonant read.
