Growing Up Zombie — Michael Canfield

The last living, breathing, resident of Harlen township discovers the perfect substance to repel the living dead. Too late to save his Grandpa, or even the town bully. Now he must set out on a desperate cross-country odyssey of survival and self-discovery. Where it leads, he can't say. But he does know he will learn to grow up in a world of zombies. Or not grow up at all.
