New school, bullies, and unseen monsters. Can she save her town?
Bridgette struggles as the new kid, facing bullies and feeling invisible. But when dark creatures only she can see appear, her world turns upside down. With her town's fate at stake, Bridgette must confront her fears and find courage within. Can she overcome the monsters and discover the power of vulnerability and friendship?
An original graphic novel about being the new kid in a different school, getting picked on by the class bullies, and what happens when a magical presence takes notice. Starting out at a new school is tough, and Bridgette isn’t having much luck, seeing as, well, she’s not great at making a first impression. Or, maybe, any impression. For now the best she can manage is… awkward. That’s when they appear. Creatures dark and scary… Creatures only she can see. But if she can’t even face down the school bullies, how is she supposed to overcome literal monsters? Well, Bridgette is going to have to figure it out fast, because she might just be her town’s only hope. The Girl and The Glim is about accepting the fact that fear is okay, and that while letting other people see your vulnerabilities can be scary, it can also lead to closer friendships in the end.
