Synopses & Reviews
The only living girl in a ghost town struggles to find her place in the first book in the Spirited graphic novel chapter book series.
Olivia "Liv" Livingston thinks life on the right side of Narrow Bridge is, well, just right! What's not to love about the perfect town of Pleasant Place? But then her parents pack up and move the family to the left, spooky side of the bridge...right into Gloomsdale.
Liv quickly learns that life is going to be very different, especially in a ghost town...literally. The town looks antique, some students have gleaming fangs, and let's just say her new house might be haunted. Will Gloomsdale dampen Liv's spirits? Or can she creep it real and find her place?

Review
"A lively, mildly spooky mix of magic, ghostly goings-on, school drama, and friendship." Kirkus Reviews
