Miranda's Ghosts

(4) K-3 Translated by Marisa Miller. Illustrated by Christa Unzner. Tired of being scared by the ghosts that dance around her room each night, Miranda frightens them with her scary Halloween witch's mask. The feisty protagonist soon tames the nighttime spooks and gets rid of them all together. The illustrations show a gang of not-too-scary ghosts and a determined Miranda. Despite the unoriginal premise, a young girl taking matters into her own hands is a satisfying message.
