On her first day haunting a new school, all Mimi has to wear are old
Chinese gowns from her great-great-great-great-great-ghost-grandmother.
She wants to look horrifying and rattle chains with the cool American
ghouls at school, but her ghost ancestors insist she dress and behave
like a good Chinese ghost. Desperate to fit in and find a middle
haunting ground between her cultures, she plans a ghastly new look. But
she questions whether her haunt couture is a fabulous fright or a grave
mistake when her family finds out, and another ghoul at school
appropriates her Chinese fashion.
This ghoulishly playful ghost story offers a boo-tiful reminder that
while sometimes school and family can make you feel invisible,
bicultural pride never goes out of style.
