by Cat Min
"Shinbi is not a particularly ghosty ghost. At night, she likes making tiny bouquets of things, and gazing at the far away stars. Haunting? Not so much. Even if thatโs what the other ghosts like.
In the daytime, in a meadow, sits a single rock, casting a single shadow, named Greem. Heโd really like someone to talk to. But who? He writes one word on his lonely rock: โHiโ and hopes someone will see it. Sure enough, in the darkness of night, Shinbi finds the note! But who could have written it?
In a profound exploration of how friendship can break through barriers of time and circumstance, Cat Min introduces us to two unforgettable characters weโd all love to know.
