Delilah Versus the Ghastly Grim

Winner of the Children's Book International Award for Fantasy and 5-Star Readers' Favorite Recipient-an epic middle-grade fantasy about courage, friendship, and self-discovery.

After a life-threatening seizure opens an indigo door in Delilah Jay Monroe's mind and lands her in the mysterious realm of Othersphere, she discovers she is "the traveler from the stories of old," the only one who can defeat the evil Ghastly Grim. With the help of a wise kangaroo council member named Viticus and a sassy ladybug named Sir Nellid, Delilah must embark on a dangerous quest to obtain the Book of Truth, crack codes, save a dragon, and uncover the hidden powers of her disorder before Othersphere is lost to the shadow and mist.

With her body lying unconscious in a hospital bed back on Earth, and the fate of Othersphere hanging in the balance, Delilah will need to find a way past her insecurities and solve a seemingly impossible riddle, or she may just lose everything. Will she survive the Ghastly Grim and his monstrous horde to get back home, or will the darkness prevail?

This award-winning middle-grade fantasy is perfect for children with special needs, parents, educators, and anyone who has ever felt they didn't fit in.

Inspired by a real girl with a seizure disorder, Delilah Versus the Ghastly Grim is a heartfelt story of empowerment, self-acceptance, and hope.
