SPOON FOR A SOUL

AVAILABLE NOW IN PAPERBACK AND FOR PRE-ORDER ON KINDLE!!

 

A secret passage. A twisted gothic village. And a very peculiar predicament . . .

For fans of Coraline and The Graveyard Book comes this delightfully ghoulish debut novel full of gripping danger, outrageous characters, and a good dose of humor!

Winner of a 2020 Penn State Creative Achievement in the Arts Award!

On Harmony Hill, being different is practically a crime, and when twelve-year-old Nerma Lee moves to town with her family of misfits, she wants nothing more than to blend in. But when a mysterious passage opens up beside her house one morning, she stumbles into a strange and gloomy village where the rules for fitting in have been turned topsy-turvy, and everyone she meets is…peculiar. With an extraordinary new companion at her side, Nerma finds herself at the center of a harrowing controversy that sweeps her into a world of slugs' tails and spiderwebs, shadowy secrets—and a very sticky conspiracy. But will she ever get back home?

Masterfully imagined and “GORIOUSLY” fun, The Girl with a Spoon for a Soul has been compared to the works of Neil Gaiman and will leave readers inspired to change the world from the inside out.

This middle grade novel contains themes of friendship, courage, belonging, diversity, responsibility, and transformation, making it an excellent choice for independent readers, educators, and homeschoolers at the middle school level and up. For ages 10 and older, including the young at heart!
