INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Harrold, A. F.

The Song from Somewhere Else

(1) 4-6 Illustrated by Levi Pinfold. Frank (short for Francesca) discovers that outcast Nicholas Underbridge's mother is a troll-like creature who lives in a world only occasionally connected to ours. When Frank spills the secret to bullies, she puts Nick--and the whole world--at risk. Harrold has an incisive, poetic, often dryly comic way with words. Pinfold's shadowy art deepens the story's air of mystery and threat.
