The Zombie Cat: A spine-tingling, middle-grade ghost story with a purr-fectly heartwarming twist

By Sara Ejersbo Frederiksen

Tobias never wanted to live next to a creepy old graveyard—especially not one haunted by a zombie cat.
When he finds a mysterious note from the house's former owner about Sibbi, a cat buried among the tombstones, Tobias starts hearing eerie noises and spotting shadowy figures. Convinced Sibbi's ghost is haunting him, he tries everything to banish the zombie cat for good.
But as the nights grow scarier and secrets of the graveyard unravel, Tobias discovers that friendship can be found in the most unlikely of places.
Perfect for middle-grade readers who love chills, mysteries, and stories with a heart.
