Critics Review
Cartoony illustrations with exaggerated facial expressions by Colossal pair with goofy paranormal plotting in this delightful graphic novel, a Goosebumps meets Ghostbusters adventure. * Publishers Weekly *
Entertainingly animated by snarky squabbles and punctuated by moments of pop-eyed terror, the cast makes its way past tests of wit and courage to the revelation of a culprit more tragically obsessed than malign…Spooky fun woven around themes of growth and handling change. * Kirkus Reviews *
[A] thoughtful exploration of the fear of change and consequences of trying to prevent change from happening. Middle-graders who like ghost stories with plenty of laughs will appreciate this rollicking adventure. * Booklist *
STARRED REVIEW
“Filled with excitement, action, and humor, this story will have readers cheering for Lily and her pals as they overcome their fears to save their town…Brimming with luminous artwork, this coming-of-age graphic novel is a perfect pick for fans of Ghostbusters, Stranger Things, and other paranormal stories that feature unlikely heroes.”
