Description
A Caldecott Medalist and New York Times best-selling author-illustrator brings a deliciously macabre treat for folktale fans. In a big abandoned house, a lonely skull lives on a barren hill. When a brave girl named Otilla finds herself lost in the dark forest, the house beckons as a refuge from her terrible past.
She takes shelter with her host, the skull, who is afraid of being discovered. But as the days pass, Otilla begins to uncover the secrets of the skull's past and the reason for its loneliness.
This haunting tale of friendship and discovery is a worthwhile read for fans of dark, atmospheric stories.
