Description
Harold Kline has always been known as Ghost Boy, an albino outcast who faces loneliness and ridicule. When the circus comes to town, he sees it as a chance to escape his isolation.
Among the colorful performers, Harold finds acceptance from some, but also struggles with the divide between those who are different and those who are not. As he navigates this new world, he must confront the truth about himself and where he truly belongs.
With its themes of self-discovery and belonging, Ghost Boy is a story about finding one's place in the world, even when it seems like an impossible task.
