Publisher's summary

With a focus on nightmares, anxiety, and bravery, this series opener is perfect for fans of the hit movies Coco, Coraline, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Slumberland.

Welcome to the in-between world, where the living go when they are fast asleep and where ghosts hang out when they have unfinished business. Visitors who come to the in-between world can confront their fears or see a loved one who has recently left the world of the living. Luckily, anyone who visits the in-between world can face their fears and anxieties with friends at their side.

In the in-between world, anything is possible, especially Skeletina, a fun-loving, fearless little girl who lives in there. Every day, Skeletina visits her friends, who include monsters, creatures, ghosts, and more. You can meet friends like Senor Tic Toc, who knows everything about the in-between world, or Spider Grandma, who teaches Skeletina the power of creativity.

Skeletina also loves to help others, like her friend Sombras, who is very shy. Sometimes, she even helps children who visit the in-between world in their sleep. She shows them how not to be afraid and how love lives on, even when someone has passed away. No matter the problem, Skeletina is there to help!

A Macmillan Audio production from Roaring Brook Press.

"An excellent tool to help children struggling with nightmares and fear."—YA and Kids Book Central
