Publisher Description
In a quaint New England town with a history of witches and pilgrims, misunderstood eleven-year-old Norman Babcock can see and talk to ghosts. No one believes him, of course-everyone just thinks he's weird (including his parents). But when a folktale of a witch who cursed her accusers turns out to be true, it's up to Norman to save the town from pilgrim zombies! In addition to the zombies, he'll have to take on a very angry witch, an annoying sidekick, his boy-crazy teenage sister, and dozens of moronic grown-ups who get in his way. This young ghoul whisperer finds his paranormal talents pushed to their otherworldly limits in this hilarious and spooky adventure!

"if you've seen the movie "Paranorman" and liked it, you are destined to like the book (audio or no audio). for myself, the book is on the top 3 best books of my life! having read the book myself 3 times so far since I saw the movie a few months back. the movie is for the fun, the book is for the story. the book explains a lot of stuff and gives a better view into Normans world than the movie does. if you don't like the movie, odds of you liking the book, aren't good.. great movie, even greater book 10/10 stars for both."
