In "The Night Mare" by Robert Westall, a group of children discovers a mysterious horse-like creature that haunts their dreams and impacts their waking lives. The story unfolds in a post-war England setting, where the sense of loss and the scars of the past linger. As the children confront their fears and unravel the enigma of the Night Mare, they must deal with the reality of their own lives and the pain of growing up. Blending elements of fantasy and psychological depth, the novel explores themes of friendship, trauma, and the power of imagination. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
