The ghost, The Owl by Franco and Sara Richard
On a cool evening on the swamp, a figure appears dancing across the water. A human figure, but far from a human form. A Ghost, a young girl spirit that seems to have lost its way. A good Samaritan owl decides to help against the wishes of his animal brethren. Together they unlock the mysteries surrounding the girl and her past and together they face the consequences.

The story itself was a little short, if it had been longer (or even became a series) I think I would fall in love completely, but there just wasn’t enough pages for me to completely get lost in the universe. I would definitely recommend it though, it’s a very quick but beautiful read.
