  Anne and Daniel stare through the window in disbelief. Who is that eerie stranger that looks just like Daniel and appears wherever Daniel is supposed to be? Out of nowhere he has appeared, in the clothes of the snowman his friends have built for him. That’s why they call him ‚the snowman‘. And now he is standing there, in the kitchen of Daniel’s hall of residency, talking to his roommates and nobody even suspects that it isn’t Daniel at all. 
  Suddenly the door opens and the doubleganger leaves the building. Anne and Daniel start following him. But the more they learn about the mysterious stranger, the greater the danger they are in. Can they solve the riddle of the snowman before it is too late?

  Human Is - He Came Back...

  Human Is by Philip K. Dick - She noticed the change in her husband -- but she had married for better or worse! 
  Jill Herrick's blue eyes filled with tears. She gazed at her husband in unspeakable horror. "You're — you're hideous!" she wailed. 
  Lester Herrick continued working, arranging heaps of notes and graphs in precise piles. 
  "Hideous," he stated, "is a value judgment. It contains no factual information." He sent a report tape on Centauran parasitic life whizzing through the desk scanner. "Merely an opinion. An expression of emotion, nothing more." 
  Jill stumbled back to the kitchen. Listlessly, she waved her hand to trip the stove into activity. Conveyor belts in the wall hummed to life, hurrying the food from the underground storage lockers for the evening meal. 
  She turned to face her husband one last time. "Not even a little while?" she begged. "Not even —" 
  "Not even for a month. When he comes you can tell him. If you haven't the courage, I'll do it. I can't have a child running around here. I have too much work to do. This report on Betelgeuse XI is due in ten days." Lester dropped a spool on Fomalhautan fossil implements into the scanner. "What's the matter with your brother? Why can't he take care of his own child?" 
  Jill dabbed at swollen eyes. "Don't you understand? I want Gus here! I begged Frank to let him come. And now you —" 
  "I'll be glad when he's old enough to be turned over to the Government." Lester's thin face twisted in annoyance. "Damn it, Jill, isn't dinner ready yet? It's been ten minutes! What's wrong with that stove?"

  A long ago “accident.” An isolated girl named Aviva. A community that wants to help, but doesn’t know how. And a ghostly dybbuk, that no one but Aviva can see, causing mayhem and mischief that everyone blames on her. 
   
  That is the setting for this suspenseful novel of a girl who seems to have lost everything, including her best friend Kayla, and a mother who was once vibrant and popular, but who now can’t always get out of bed in the morning. 
   
  As tensions escalate in the Jewish community of Beacon with incidents of vandalism and a swastika carved into new concrete poured near the synagogue … so does the tension grow between Aviva and Kayla and the girls at their school,  
  and so do the actions of the dybbuk grow worse. 
   
  Could real harm be coming Aviva’s way? And is it somehow related to the “accident” that took her father years ago? 
   
  Aviva vs. the Dybbuk is a compelling, tender story about friendship and community, grief and healing, and one indomitable girl who somehow manages to connect them all.
