Bookroo's summary

Batcat enjoys solitude on Spooky Island until a pesky ghost disrupts their peace. Seeking help from the Island Witch, Batcat embarks on a quest for a Ghost-B-Gone spell. As they journey through Cavernous Caves and Whispering Cemetery, Batcat faces challenges from bats and cats who question their identity. Neither fully bat nor cat, Batcat must embrace their uniqueness to succeed. Will they find the ingredients and accept who they truly are? This whimsical adventure explores self-acceptance and the magic of being in-between.

From the publisher

First in a full-color graphic novel series for emerging readers about accepting yourself and others from up-and-coming author-illustrator Meggie Ramm, creator of the comic strip The Littlest Dungeon Guard and cohost of the Pop! Whiz! Bang! comics podcast. Batcat loves being all alone in their home on Spooky Island. Up in their tree house, they pass the time playing video games and watching TV. But when Batcat suddenly finds themself haunted by an annoying, ice cream-stealing ghost, they visit the local Island Witch for a spell to remove their ghastly guest permanently! With their Ghost-B-Gone spell in hand, Batcat travels across Spooky Island to gather ingredients–to the Cavernous Caves where the bats tell them they’re too round to be a bat, and to the Whispering Cemetery where the cats will help only if they commit to being a true cat. But Batcat is neither and that’s what makes them special, right? From up-and-coming author Meggie Ramm comes a sweet and fun story about accepting yourself when you’re perfectly in between here and there.
