Gustavo is a ghost who is very, very shy. They have a hard time talking to people, but he tries to be present and involved, they are just not seen. But Gustavo decides to be brave, to be front and center and perform a violin concert for everyone. Now they are finally noticed, and friends are made. The story is adorable and the artwork perfectly matches the story and tone. While the book does mention Day of the Dead, this book could be read any time and does not need to be regulated to the “holiday” shelf.
