Middle-Grade, 30,000 words.
Spirit Morgan hates Japan. She hates her new apartment, she hates her new school, and she can’t stand the plump neighbor boy, Koichi. Spirit misses her real home in Texas, so she devises a plan to convince her parents to move back.
Spirit is going to become the biggest brat possible. She beats up Koichi at school, never does her chores, talks back to her mother, and kicks and screams when she doesn’t get her way. But instead of moving back to Texas, her father, a commercial fisherman, leaves on an extended voyage. Then a strange boy gives her a peach the size of a pumpkin, and she becomes involved in a witch’s scheme. The wicked witch Obaa steals Spirit’s voice, turns Koichi into a pig and kidnaps her parents, taking them into the realm of the spirits.
