An entertaining debut from an author/artist who worked on }Coraline{, which is spooky, sardonic and yet incredibly sincere. When Anya falls down a well, the last thing she expects to find is a new friend who's been dead for a century. But when every other aspect of her life is falling apart, maybe a new friend is just the thing she needs Anya, embarrassed by her Russian immigrant family and self-conscious about her body, has given up on fitting in at school, but falling down a well and making friends with the ghost there just may be worse.
