Meet Suee: Twelve years old, wears her hair to the left in a point, favors a black dress, has no friends—and she likes it that way! When Suee transfers to the dull and ordinary Outskirts Elementary, she doesn’t expect to hear a strange voice speaking to her from the darkness of the school’s exhibit room, and she certainly doesn’t expect to see her shadow come to life. Then things start to get really weird: One by one, her classmates at school turn into zombie-like, hollow-eyed Zeroes. While Suee investigates why this is happening, her shadow gains power. Soon, Suee must confront a stunning secret that her shadow has been hiding under her own two feet—something very dark and sinister that could put Suee and her newfound friends at risk!

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Suee and the Shadow by Ginger Ly is praised for its menacing yet finely honed graphics, with a dark, appealing visual style. The story features bold and eye-catching artwork, with a limited colour palette that adds to the eerie atmosphere. The narrative is described as having emotional depth through its subplot about Suee's reluctance to make friends. This graphic novel is noted for its appeal to middle-grade readers and is appreciated for its diverse representation without focusing solely on cultural themes.
