Have YOU ever seen a ghost?
The Picture Book of the Week is There’s a Ghost in this House, written and illustrated by Oliver Jeffers, author of Stuck, The Day the Crayons Quit, The Heart and the Bottle, and many more.
About the Book:
A little girl is the main character in this book and the plot is simple. She has heard her house is haunted, but as hard as she looks, she can’t find a ghost. Her hope is that perhaps the reader can help her find a ghost, but you have to flip through the pages to find out.
A perfect book for Halloween.
