description: Twelve-year-old Belinda is abducted and kept captive in an attic in this children's gothic comic thriller. Belinda is locked away in a leaky, creaky attic room where she's given nothing but moldy bread to eat and tepid water to drink. Her brain has been washed clean of memories by her frighteningly hideous caretaker, Nanny Gulch. Is Belinda's marvelous imagination powerful enough to transport her beyond the sooty window of the attic? Emerging from a tradition of the very best in dark British children's fiction, Belinda and the Dustbunnys is reminiscent of Roald Dahl's BFG and even J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter novels.
