About this book

A Junior Library Guild Selection

Stacy and Gina Cavallaro are twin sisters and baseball rivals, each pitching for a different Little League team. Gina is a sports whiz and the star of her winning team, while Stacy's band of misfits hasn't won a game all season. The battling sisters also happen to be the youngest in a long line of local witches. So when Gina's magic spins out of control and her spell accidentally raises a zombie, the girls have to set aside their differences and figure out how to make things right. And Stacy's team of misfits -- Billy, Sanchez, Levi, Beans, Paddy, Killroy, Gomez, and Boots -- must band together to save the day!

Praise for Magic Pickle Graphic Novel:

★ "Starting with an irresistibly goofy premise, Morse layers on sly humor, astute references, and blazing action, turning in a charming, slam-bang story." -- Booklist, starred review

"This title's sly wit and fun, energetic art will be a great success with graphic novel fans and with those who appreciate puns and the kookier side of things." -- School Library Journal
