Took (Graphic Novel): A Ghost Story by Mary Downing Hahn, Jen Vaughn, Scott Peterson
3.0
'Took: A Ghost Story Graphic Novel' by Mary Downing Hahn with adaptation by Scott Peterson and art by Jen Vaughn is a scary story for middle school readers.
When Daniel and his family move to a new state and a run down house, he hears stories about a witch that lives in the woods nearby with her terrifying assistant. Daniel refuses to believe until his sister goes missing and a girl who has been missing for 50 years shows up, Daniel knows something is up. Now he is about the only one who can be courageous and rescue his sister.
I liked this fun, spooky story, but the parents were so checked out, it kind of kept taking me out of the story. The art is fine and younger readers should be scared by it.
