Sinossi
Cat si è appena trasferita con la sua famiglia a Bahía de la Luna. La nuova città è cupa, ventosa e sempre immersa nella nebbia, e a Cat mancano gli amici di prima. Ma il clima di quelle parti è ottimo per la sua sorellina, Maya, che soffre di una grave malattia respiratoria. Il tempo, però, non è l'unica cosa strana a Bahía de la Luna... la città infatti nasconde un segreto: ci sono i fantasmi! Maya vuole a tutti i costi incontrarne uno: ha tante cose da chiedergli. Cat invece non vuole averci niente a che fare e vuole che stiano alla larga da loro. Ma è in arrivo un giorno speciale: il Día de los muertos, quando tutti i vivi e gli antenati scomparsi hanno l'occasione di ritrovarsi insieme. Cat riuscirà a mettere da parte le sue paure per il bene della sorella? Età di lettura: da 11 anni.

Anytime I see a book that has something to do with ghosts, I wonder if the author is going to be contributing to the too-high-pile of problematic books with characters who are haunted or inspired by the ghost of a Native character.

This was the perfect heartfelt, quick, and light graphic novel to pick up after feeling emotionally exhausted by my first read of the year. Catrina and her family are moving to the coast of Northern California because her little sister, Maya, is sick. Cat isn't happy about leaving her friends for
Second book for booktubeathon complete! I looooved this one. I'm obsessed with ghosts and skeletons and Dia de Los Muertos so this story was right up my alley. But it also had a ton of heart packed into it as well. Definitely recommend it!
Great Story! So much is rolled into this story making is a yummy layered cake. There is Halloween and the Day of the Dead celebration. There are ghosts, for sure, moving to a new town and cystic fibrosis. It makes for a good story. We follow the older sister mostly who has to look out for her younger Leggi tutto
I always love finding 'hidden gems' like this GN. The relationship between sisters is told from a perspective of hope tinged with possible loss; the relationship with the ghosts of loved ones who return during Dia de los Muertos underlines the limited time we have with our loved ones...a lesson we n Leggi tutto
This is a departure from Talgemeier's usual style: Sisters and Smile . It seems less popular with children in my area. I don't know if this is because it is 'spooky' and features ghosts, or if it's because it deals with serious chronic childhood illness. The plot is about Catrina and her little sister Leggi tutto
