Anya's Ghost
<p>Anya could really use a friend. But her new BFF isn't kidding about the "forever" part . . . <br>Of all the things Anya expected to find at the bottom of an old well, a new friend was not one of them. Especially not a new friend who's been dead for a century. <br>Falling down a well is bad enough, but Anya's normal life might actually be worse. She's embarrassed by her family, self-conscious about her body, and she's pretty much given up on fitting in at school. A new friend―even a ghost―is just what she needs. <br>Or so she thinks. <br>Spooky, sardonic, and secretly sincere, <i>Anya's Ghost </i>is a wonderfully entertaining debut graphic novel from author/artist Vera Brosgol.</p><p>This title has Common Core connections.</p><p>A 2011 <i>Kirkus</i> Best Teen Book of the Year <br>A <i>School Library Journal</i> Best Fiction Book of 2011<br>A <i>Horn Book</i> Best Fiction Book of 2011<br>Winner of the 2012 Eisner Award for Best Publication for Young Adults (Ages 12-17)</p>
