๐ The Scoop
* Chosen as a 2020 Kirkus Prize Finalist for Young Readers' Literature! *
A Malaysian folk tale comes to life in this emotionally layered, chilling middle grade debut, perfect for fans of The Book of Boy and The Jumbies.
I am a dark spirit, the ghost announced grandly. I am your inheritance, your grandmotherโs legacy. I am yours to command.
Suraya is delighted when her witch grandmother gifts her a pelesit. She names her ghostly companion Pink, and the two quickly become inseparable.
But Suraya doesnโt know that pelesits have a dark sideโand when Pinkโs shadows threaten to consume them both, they must find enough light to survive . . . before they are both lost to the darkness.
Fans of Holly Blackโs Doll Bones and Tahereh Mafiโs Furthermore series will love this ghostly middle grade debut that explores jealousy, love, and the extraordinary power of friendship.
Genre: Juvenile Fiction / Legends, Myths, Fables / Asian (fancy, right?)
