He stinks. He’s got maggots. His body parts fall off at inopportune moments. (His mom always sews them back on, though.) And he hasn’t been able to sleep in years. Not since waking up from death. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBut worse than the maggots is how lonely Crow feels. When Melody Plympton moves in next door, Crow can’t resist the chance to finally make a friend. With Melody around he may even have a shot at getting his life back from the mysterious wish-granting creature living in the park. But first there are tests to pass. And it will mean risking the only friend he’s had in years.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDebut author Laurel Gale’s story about friendship fulfilled may be the most moving—and most macabre—yet.\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eDead Boy\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“A stinky, creepy tale for anyone who’s ever felt like an outsider.” —\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e“Gale takes readers on a dark and surprisingly funny journey. . . .

Gale says, “I wondered what it would be like for a ‘live’ dead boy to try to make friends. I had no idea what would happen next, so I kept writing to find out.” Like Crow, Gale resides in the Nevada desert. She lives with her husband and a band of furry monsters that might actually be ferrets.
