(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Lisbeth Zwerger. An American family moves into Canterville Chase, an English manor home previously owned by aristocracy, and inherits the resident ghost. The family comically counters the specter's every attempt to spook them; the nonplussed ghost sinks into a depression before finding eternal rest with the help of the kindhearted daughter. Zwerger's watercolors capture both the hilarity and pathos of the famous tale originally published in 1986 by Picture Book Studio.
