Did you know that the award-winning duo behind the Stitch Head series also have another brilliantly creepy and fun black-and-white illustrated series for readers aged 7+ who love all things goth?
Skeleton Keys is the protagonist who gives this series its name: he's got 10 keys instead of fingers and uses them to access all sorts of places in his Doorminion. In each book, Skeleton tells us a new child's story: Ben Bunsen, whose imaginary friend suddenly comes to life, Luna Moon, whose family is disappearing before her very eyes, and Gap-tooth Jack, whose writing comes to life.
The books don't have to be read in any particular order, and are each a new terrific tale, perfect for fans of the Amelia Fang Series or the Nothing To See Here Hotel books.
