Marjorie Glatt, a practical thirteen-year-old, finds herself in charge of the family laundry business, navigating unforgiving customers, unbearable P.E. classes, and the meticulous Mr. Saubertuck who is determined to ruin everything she has worked for. On the other hand, Wendell is a ghost, a boy who lost his life too young, his daily routine consisting of ineffective death therapy, a sheet-dependent identity, and a dangerous desire to explore the forbidden human world.

When their paths cross, Marjorie is faced with unexplainable disasters as Wendell transforms Glatt's Laundry into his midnight playground, appearing as a mere sheet during the day. While Wendell attempts to create a new afterlife for himself, he unknowingly sabotages the life that Marjorie is struggling to maintain.

Sheets is a powerful illustration of a young girl's determination to fight, even when all parts of her world seem to be conspiring against her. It proves that second chances are possible, even when life feels overwhelming or has come to an end. Above all, it is a story of the forgiveness and unlikely friendship that can only blossom within the confines of a haunted laundromat.

Brenna Thummler's first original graphic novel is a cause for celebration. She has established herself as an artist to be reckoned with, having illustrated Mariah Marsden's adaptation of Anne of Green Gables. Now, she has illustrated her own story of ghosts, family, loneliness, and laundromats. I am confident that you will be captivated, and I share your eagerness to see what lies ahead.

Sweet, sad, funny, warm, and beautiful, this novel has touched the hearts of many readers. If I am forgiven for using this w.
