Aimee and The Bear

When her mother's cruelty is too much, Amy holds her teddy bear's paw and travels to the Other Place—a world where teddies become real bears, where children attend the Night School to escape whatever it is they face at home, where Amy becomes Aimee, and there's magic in the air. But the Other Place is in danger—the Witch has awoken, and Amy must find the courage to save her baby brother before it's too late.A dazzling, heart-wrenching and brutal descent into the world of the imagination. This is not a children's book. This is not a fairy tale. This is not your average heroine.
