Skeleton Girl

The Skeleton Girl is a minor character mentioned in Every Heart a Doorway and Beneath the Sugar Sky.

Appearance
Christopher dreams about her, describing her smile as unchanging and ever-welcoming.

Personality
Christopher describes her smile as welcoming, and says that she would never forgive him if he didn't help with Loriel's body.

Every Heart a Doorway
She is first mentioned by Christopher, when he says she would never forgive him if he didn't help with Loriel's body. He later says that the Skeletons in the Country of the Bones had told him that he'd one day return and marry the Skeleton Girl.

Christopher later says that he'd punch the other boys whenever they made fun of her. He also says that his parents did not believe his story about the Country of the Bones, and thought it was a complicated breakdown, and his Mother believed that the Skeleton Girl was a girl he fell in love with who died of anorexia, and kept asking him if he remembered her real name so she could contact her parents.

Beneath the Sugar Sky
Christopher reveals that she saved him from cancer by "piping it away". She also took out one of his bones to make his flute, replacing it with another.

Christopher
Christopher promised to marry the Skeleton Girl once he returned to the Country of the Bones, and thinks very highly of her and doesn't want to do anything she'd disapprove of. He would defend her against the other boys, punching them whenever they insulted her.
