The Night Parade: Japanese Mythology Meets Coming-of-Age Fantasy Adventure

A haunting curse. A race through the spirit world. One girl's journey to redemption. Saki Yamamoto didn't want to spend her summer in a quiet mountain village with no Wi-Fi and endless rituals. But when a dare leads her to break a sacred tradition during Japan's Obon Festival, she awakens something far more terrifying than boredom. Now cursed and marked by death, Saki must brave the Night Parade―a journey through Japan's spirit realm filled with yokai, ghosts, and ancient magic. With just three nights and the help of three strange spirit guides, she must outwit the supernatural, face her fears, and heal what's been broken―or risk vanishing from the world of the living forever. If you loved the eerie wonder of Spirited Away and the quiet chills of Coraline, this award-winning middle-grade fantasy will capture your imagination―and your heart. Perfect for fans of Wicked Fox, The Girl Who Drank the Moon, and readers who want more middle-grade fantasy rooted in rich cultural traditions. Enter the spirit world. Discover who you really are. And don't look back. Honors & Awards: Freeman Book Award Winner Junior Library Guild Selection Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year Kids' Indie Next Pick
