(3) K-3 Illustrated by Charlie Mylie. A young ghost sets off into the world to find "a place to haunt of my own," but every location is already occupied by unwelcoming specters who tell our hero to "get lost!" A helpful bird eventually leads it to an abandoned, empty garden shed. "It's perfect!"—until there's a knock on the door: an even younger ghost looking for a home. The palette of dark purple and black is appropriately creepy; the depictions of the established ghosts can be frightening, but the emphasis is on the endearing, unscary protagonist, with its “weird little” brown hat and small suitcase.
Reviewer: Martha V. Parravano
