Description:

What do you do when a ghost decides to befriend you? This wonderfully whimsical picture book, written and illustrated as a charming "how-to" field guide, has all the answers. Rebecca Green's award-winning debut explains that you can't go looking for a ghost — but if you're sweet, warm and kind, one just might find you! From there, the guide walks young readers through the gleefully gross essentials: feeding your ghost its favourite treats (mud tarts and earwax truffles, naturally), reading it bedtime stories, and making very sure no one mistakes it for whipped cream or a marshmallow. Tender as well as funny, the tale follows the friendship as girl and ghost grow up and grow old together, quietly teaching what it means to be a true friend. Green's soft, spice-toned artwork makes it a cosy delight — perfect for Halloween or any time.
