Illustrated by
Ross Stewart.
Twelve-year-old Norman's ability to communicate with the dead hasn't won him many friends among the living. When his town is terrorized by zombies (thanks to a three-centuries-old witch's curse), Norman must embrace his gift and accept help from unlikely sources. This illustrated novelization of the animated film will satisfy zombie fans not yet ready for hard-core horror. Infrequent shifts in point of view are disorienting, though.
