Perfect for fans of Spirited Away, Coco, and Ghosts comes a
contemporary fantasy graphic novel about a girl who can see ghosts
and befriends a boy who is stuck between the worlds of the living
and the dead--an instant classic from the award-winning creator of
Pie in the Sky Twelve years ago, the boy and the girl lived. But
one was supposed to die. July Chen sees ghosts. But her dad insists
ghosts aren't real. So she pretends they don't exist. Which is
incredibly difficult now as it's Hungry Ghost month, when the Gates
of the Underworld open and dangerous ghosts run amok in the living
world. When July saves a boy ghost from being devoured by a Hungry
Ghost, he becomes her first ever friend. Except William is not a
ghost. He's a wandering soul wavering between life and death. As
the new friends embark on an adventure to return William to his
body, they unearth a ghastly truth--for William to live, July must
die. Inspired by Chinese mythology, this dark yet resoundingly
hopeful tale about friendship, sacrifice, and the unseen world of
ghosts is a dazzling heir to beloved Studio Ghibli classics.
