Sign of the Sandman

2014 INDIES Finalist
Finalist, Juvenile Fiction (Children's)

Plagued by nightmares, comic superhero–adoring Charlie is lovable in his innocence and sheepishness. He’s bullied at school, but when his most frightening nightmares turn out to be true, he must learn to take control and overcome his fears. Reality and Charlie’s dream world overlap, time travel swirls Charlie and his friends to untamed places, and the beauty of imagination turns life into magical realism. Shimmering locales and mystical villains make Charlie’s journey exceedingly readable. Ages eight to thirteen.
