Beyond the Dark Stuff James Manda

Jason, a lonely boy is disturbed by a recurring dream of an endless staircase laced with monsters. He learns to be brave from his imaginary friend (inner voice? or guardian angel? or the early stages of intuition). Through that new found courage he finds a kindred spirit in another little boy as they become fast friends. Drawn from the author's own childhood along with working with children at a Montessori school, deaf and blind school, as well as special needs school. He delivers another poignant almost autobiographical account in the sweet narrative.
