BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - OPTIONAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Ghost lives alone and wants a friend. He's active in his neighborhood, but lonely. Sometimes, a family pet will see him, but most never notice him. Then one day Ghost makes a friend. They do lots of things together. That is, until Ghost's friend disappears.
I like ghost stories, and this is a sweet one about friendship. Ghost, as drawn in the pictures, is a bit of a nerd, which will appeal to kids. And Ghost is shown as sad. I like that the artwork is pretty detailed and kids will like looking at the pictures of Ghost and getting his point of view. The pictures will also provoke conversation and empathy.
