The Grumpy Ghost Upstair
A grumpy little ghost makes a new friend in this wryly funny, spooky-but-cute picture book with striking illustrations reminiscent of Brian Selznick.
A little ghost lives in the attic of a big house. All alone: just how he likes it. Until one day a curious girl disturbs his peace and quiet. Why won't the annoying and slightly scary child go away? So he decides to do what ghosts do best. . .
Shy little ones will smile at the antics of the grumpy ghost in this charmingly offbeat story about being brave, adapting to change, and having the courage to open up to others. Perfect for spooky season and beyond!
