Description: "Jonah Sees Ghosts tells the story of fifteen-year-old Jonah Hart, a boy with a problem he's afraid to share: Not only does he see ghosts, but when he dreams at night, he leaves his body and travels in the ether - a compellingly addictive form of retreat." "As the ghosts that plague him become more and more aggressive, Jonah withdraws into his dream world; when things there turn dangerous as well, the boy is forced to make a stand from the full depths of abandonment and isolation in a last stab at redemption. At its heart, Jonah Sees Ghosts is a story of love within dysfunction and the adaptability of the human spirit."--BOOK JACKET.
