This book creeped me out. Poor Bela has to grow up way too fast in this one. 

This book plays on the innocence children have and how people take advantage of that. Bela has made friends with the Other Mommy in her closet. Bela finally realizes that Other Mommy isn't as nice as she thought, and her parents finally realize that Bela's imaginary friend is so much more sinister than they thought.
