THE WINNER OF THE KLAUS FLUGGE PRIZE 2021 A #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A great story about
making friends by being yourself and the illustrations are a constant visual delight Malorie
Blackman Gustavo is a ghost. He is good at doing all sorts of paranormal things like walking
through walls making objects fly and glowing in the dark. And he loves playing beautiful music
on his violin. But Gustavo also has a problem. He is SHY. Which means some things are harder
for him to do like getting in a line to buy eye-scream or talking to the other monsters. But
Gustavo longs to be a part of something he longs to be seen. More than anything he wants to
make a friend. So plucking up all his courage he sends a very special letter: ¿Dear Monsters
I would like to invite you to my violin concert at the Day of the Dead party¿¿With exquisite
detail and humour Flavia Z. Dragös vivid illustrations tell a sweet and offbeat story of
friendship and courage.
