How would you react if you discovered you had special abilities and were thrust into an epic battle between good and evil?

When spring arrives during twelve-year-old Willow''s sixth-grade year at Elm City Waldorf School in Keene, New Hampshire, she discovers she has the divine gift of Sight - a special ability to ''see'' things most don''t, such as people''s inner Light, and the fae folk. A whole new layer of reality opens up to Willow, but not all of it is good. Her recurring nightmare of an attacking horde of hellhounds feels like a premonition. The terrifying woman of darkness, Gehenna, is planning something horrible. Can Willow help stop these demonic forces? 

When Willows Weep is a contemporary fantasy exploring the intersections of compassion and combat, faith and fantasy, rejection and redemption, free will and fate, and ecology and education. It speaks primarily to a middle-grade and young adult audience, but also to readers of all ages who are fans of Waldorf education, people of faith, or who just enjoy fantasy.
