Zombie Tag

Zombie Tag by Moskowitz, Hannah. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781596437203.

Wil is desperate for his older brother to come back from the dead. But the thing about zombies is . . they dont exactly make the best siblings. Thirteen-year-old Wil Lowenstein copes with his brothers death by focusing on Zombie Tag, a mafia/capture the flag hybrid game where he and his friends fight off brain-eating zombies with their mothers spatulas. What Wil doesnt tell anybody is that if he could bring his dead brother back as a zombie, he would in a heartbeat. But when Wil finds a way to summon all the dead within five miles, hes surprised to discover that his back-from-the-dead brother is emotionless and distant. In her first novel for younger readers, Moskowitz offers a funny and heartfelt look at how one boy deals with change, loss, and the complicated relationship between brothers.
