Book Synopsis



An instant New York Times bestseller!

Gustavo, the Shy Ghost meets Zombie in Love in this story about a young zombie who must decide: Are brains friends...or food?

Zeb comes from a family of farmers-zombie farmers. Each week they pickle, bake, fry, and sell their grain-fed, free-range brains to be enjoyed by the masses. Zeb understands that brains are food, not pets...until one day he comes across the tiniest, pinkest, squishiest brain he ever did see! Can he convince his parents that his brainy bestie is better off as a member of the family than family dinner?

This irresistibly adorable picture book is the perfect read aloud for Halloween season and beyond, and is sure to be a spooky staple for young readers.



Review Quotes




"Irresistibly cute. . . . A cuddly "Can I keep it?" tale with a silly, flesh-eating twist." --Kirkus Reviews

"Lucianovic peppers her variation on the "Can I keep it?" genre with sly humor . . . while Cham's depictions of offbeat locavore culture are sweetly ghoulish." --Publishers Weekly
