Thank you, artpanda. Now many other people have a really good idea on what ghosts is about! This can really connect to a lot of people because I know there are people with cystic fibrosis.
"Ghosts" is about a family who moves to a new house and starts unpacking. Then the two sisters go for a walk. They go through the forest and the younger sister has breathing issues. They see some ghosts and the younger sister starts choking on the air.

This graphic novel is cute and heart warming. I love the culture, Day of the Dead, in the book because I have always found it captivating. I think Maya is brave to be able to smile and be happy even though she is sick. Overall the story was interesting.
this book was great it was about when a girl moved from her friends into a town that was filled with ghosts i recommend this book for grades 3 and up
This book was awesome! I love grapic novels and I would recommend this book. Its about Kat's sister being sick and they had to move. She learns a lot of lessons and that ghosts aren't hurtful
sound good i really want to read it...
The main character in this story is Catrina. Her family moves to California because Maya, her little sister, has cystic fibrosis. A new neighbor lets the girls in on a secret that there are ghosts in Bahia de la Luna. My Brother and I enjoy spending time together and being adventurous too.
