From an award-winning author and the masterful illustrator of The Midnight Fair comes a tale for anyone who has ever gotten lost in an unfamiliar place--or is drawn to gothic worlds.

When Miss Flytrap asks if anyone knows the way to Mr. Grimly's classroom, Grace's hand flies up--she can't help herself, even though she's a new kid in school and has no idea where to go. Nonetheless, with a book to deliver proudly in hand, Grace sets off on a long, strange journey through a very odd place, full of twists, turns, and creepy characters who give puzzling directions. Climbing dark, cobwebby staircases, feeling her way through a fogged-up playground, careening by zipline from the top of a treacherous tower right into a kitchen window--will she ever find Mr. Grimly's classroom? With equal parts suspense and humor, author Chris Priestley leads an unsettling school tour for the ages, while Mariachiara Di Giorgio's atmospheric, immersive illustrations beckon readers on with mesmerizing visual riddles.

Chris Priestley has also contributed an illustrated story to Hellboy: An Assortment of Horrors. He lives in Cambridge, England.
