Follow Skeletina as she helps an ordinary girl navigate her extraordinary dream in Skeletina and the Greedy Tooth Fairy, a charming picture book about nightmares, bravery, and honesty by Susie Jaramillo, and the otherworldly follow-up to Skeletina and the In Between World.
Skeletina's day starts just like any other in the mixed-up, upside-down, in-between world she calls home. That is, until she hears a strange sound coming from right inside her house. There's a little girl crying behind the walls, and her teeth keep falling out! But Skeletina knows who can sniff out the truth.
Join fun-loving and fearless Skeletina on another in-between adventure as she helps a frightened little girl conquer her fears and turn a scary dream into something much more fun! 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!
