In OPHELIA AND THE MARVELOUS BOY there are quite a few monsters. My little heroine, Ophelia, meets them in various places in the strange and crumbling museum in the city where it always snows. There are threadbare taxidermy wolves that spring to life and chase her through the galleries. There are horribly dangerous Great Magical Owls who seek out the delicate morsels of innocence for the Snow Queen. And then there are…. the Misery Birds. Vote in Our Poll
