The Other Felix

The Other Felix
by Keir Graff

When he's awake Felix seems to be a typical boy, dealing with occasional family issues and problems at school.   At night, however, Felix travels in his vivid dreams to a creepy world filled with terrifying monsters.  He is terrified to fall asleep.   That is, until he meets The Other Felix.  The Other Felix may look just like him and have the same name, except he lives permanently in the dream world that Felix visits each night.   With The Other Felix his dreams are no longer nightmares.   Instead, he looks forward to sleep each night and the exciting dreams where he and his new friend share adventures and battle monsters.  Despite his new appreciation for his dream adventures, Felix will soon learn that it is difficult to escape the problems he faces in both his daily life and his dream world. 

The Other Felix is a good combination of realistic fiction and fantasy.  Felix's daily life is one that many readers will be able to relate to, yet his dream adventures will appeal to readers looking for stories that are more on the adventurous and suspenseful side.
