Dandelions: The Disappearance of Annabelle Fancher

By Richelle E. Goodrich

"Annabelle, the girl who was overlooked, unwanted, insignificant, worthless." - Richelle E. Goodrich

This fictional tale mirrors the unfortunate reality of many young people whose home lives are private nightmares. Annabelle tenderly acquaints the reader with her lonely struggles while sharing her courage in the face of adversity. Many of the events in this book were taken from the lives of individuals known by the author.

Annabelle Fancher lives with her mother and her often-absent, alcoholic father. When he is not on the road, his presence at home creates heightened anxiety in his wife and daughter-fear caused by years of abuse. Annabelle copes with her circumstances by escaping into popular fairy tales where she dreams characters to life. When her dreams cross over into waking fantasies, and the ghostly image of a dreamed character appears before her, Annabelle begins a real struggle to separate reality from pretend and sanity from beautiful madness. This is a story where realism and fantasy beautifully intertwine.
