(2) 4-6 Orphan Gabe is impaled by a weathervane during a tornado. After regaining consciousness, Gabe gradually realizes he died in the accident, and his dog is the only one who sees him. Gabe ends up in the misty valley of Bone Hollow with a shapeshifting girl named Wynne, who trains Gabe to take her place helping dying people transition to the afterlife. Ventrella's vivid story takes an unsentimental look at loss.
