Product Detail:
Anya could really use a friend. But her new BFF isn't kidding about the "forever" part . . .
Of
all the things Anya expected to find at the bottom of an old well, a
new friend was not one of them. Especially not a new friend who's been
dead for a century.
Falling down a well is bad enough, but Anya's
normal life might actually be worse. She's embarrassed by her family,
self-conscious about her body, and she's pretty much given up on fitting
in at school. A new friend?even a ghost?is just what she needs.
Or so she thinks.
Spooky, sardonic, and secretly sincere, Anya's Ghost is a wonderfully entertaining debut graphic novel from author/artist Vera Brosgol.
