DES PLAINES, Ill.
Courtney, a 12-year-old girl, dreads the thought of growing up. While her life was once normal, it is now a shell of its former reality due to her father's absence. Luckily for her, the realm of light, goodness and beauty - Elysia - offers her refuge from the plights of everyday life and her depression. Unfortunately, Courtney may not be able to enjoy Elysia; only children are allowed in the mysterious realm.
Author Malcolm Chester invites readers to experience this story of adolescence and the troubles one faces when coming of age in his new book "Elysia: The World in Children's Dreams" (published by Trafford Publishing).
Shortly after her father goes missing, Courtney discovers she can visit Elysia when she dreams. A land brimming with mounds of candy, colorful creatures and the boy of her dreams, she never wants to leave. Her connection to the land grows even stronger when the kingdom elects her as its new queen.
Maelstrom, the nearby evil land, plans on destroying Elysia. With Elysia's magic crystal now in their possession, Maelstrom looks as if they may succeed. Courtney and her friends must quickly find the missing crystal and restore balance to the land, as time pushes Courtney closer and closer to becoming an adult.
