Conoce a Gustavo. El es un fantasma y como a cualquier ser paranormal le encanta hacer lo que le es normal: atravesar paredes, hacer volar objetos y brillar en la oscuridad. Tambien le encanta tocar el violin.

Pero Gustavo tiene un problema. El es muy, muy timido; y aunque su deseo mas grande es tener amigos, nunca se ha atrevido a hablarle a ninguno de los monstruos en su pueblito. Con el Dia de Muertos cerca, ?se atrevera Gustavo a dejar que lo vean?

De la nueva, brillante y talentosa autora Flavia Z. Drago nos llega una historia dulce y poco convencional sobre como hacer amigos en tu propia y especial manera.

Gustavo is good at doing all sorts of ghostly things: walking through walls, making objects fly, and glowing in the dark. And he loves almost nothing more than playing beautiful music on his violin. But Gustavo is shy, and some things are harder for him to do, like getting in a line to buy eye scream or making friends with other monsters. Whenever he tries getting close to them, he realizes they just can’t see him. Now that the Day of the Dead is fast approaching, what can he do to make them notice him and to share with them something he loves?

Debut author Flavia Z. Drago tells a sweet and gently offbeat story of loneliness, bravery, and friendship that is sure to be a treat for little ghouls and goblins everywhere.
