“Folk tale retelling at its finest. Perfect 20 minutes with my morning coffee. Brought back memories of reading Grimm's Fairy Tales at my Grandma's house.”
— Lori Holliday • Perennial Pages Bookshoppe
Winner of the 2024 Audie Award for Young Listeners
In a big abandoned house on a barren hill lives a skull. A brave girl named Otilla has escaped from terrible danger and run away, and when she finds herself lost in the dark forest, the lonely house beckons. Her host, the skull, is afraid of something too, something that comes every night. Can brave Otilla save them both?
Steeped in shadows and threaded with subtle wit, The Skull is as empowering as it is mysterious and foreboding.
