                  PARANORMAN

Kimmel, E. C., & Stewart, R. (2012). ParaNorman: a novel. New
          York: Little, Brown.

Norman Babcock possesses the ability to communicate with ghosts.  Doubted by friends and family of his paranormal abilities, he is picked on by the kids at school and even his own family. Upon learning that the legend of the witch's curse is true, Norman is sought by a ghost and asked to stop the wicked witch and her squad of zombies.  Does Norman have what it takes to save his town from evil?  Will this event change the way people think of him?  Author Elizabeth Cody Kimmel uses the story of Norman to touch base on the issue of bullying in a very peculiar way.
