Ghosts by Raina Telgemeier

Discover the heartfelt graphic novel Ghosts by Raina Telgemeier, a #1 New York Times bestselling and Eisner Award–winning middle grade story about family, change, and learning to face fear with courage. Perfect for readers who love emotional, character-driven graphic novels, this moving tale blends everyday life with a touch of the supernatural.

When Catrina and her family move to the foggy coastal town of Bahía de la Luna in Northern California, she struggles to adjust to her new life. The move is meant to help her younger sister Maya, who has cystic fibrosis, breathe easier in the cool sea air. But leaving behind friends and familiarity is difficult for Cat, especially as Maya quickly embraces their new surroundings.

As the sisters explore their new home, they hear a surprising local legend: the town is full of ghosts. While Maya is fascinated and eager to meet them, Cat is reluctant to believe—or even think about—the supernatural. But as the Day of the Dead approaches and the boundary between worlds grows thinner, Cat must confront her fears and learn what it truly means to support her sister.

Tender, accessible, and beautifully illustrated, Ghosts is a powerful story about family bonds, illness, cultural traditions, and the courage it takes to embrace change.
