The Book
The Boatman by Kat Hawthorne
Genre: middle grade horror
About The Boatman:
Isabel Wixon is weird. Not only does she see dead things, but her list of friends consist of a talkative ventriloquist’s dummy and the gentlemanly spider that lives in her hair. Real friends? Too hard. Inventing friends is much easier.Source: Info in the About The Boatman was from the press kit from the publicity team.
Inventing the Boatman—a terrible monster that lures kids into a strange sleeping sickness and never lets them go—probably wasn’t one of her better ideas though.
