Sinopsis

Bo is a little girl who loves to read stories before bedtime. One evening, as she is reading an especially funny tale about a witch with stinky feet, all the lights go out. Before she can recover, a clammy hand grabs one end of her book. She closes her eyes and holds on tight to the other end. Bo and her story book are whisked away to a strange place where she has never been before. When she opens her eyes, she finds herself standing in the Ghost Library, a gigantic, spooky room filled with empty shelves. It isnat long before she meets the friendly ghosts who regularly visit this place. Theyare constantly looking for more good stories--but their shelves are always empty. Bo is a little girl whose head is filled with ideas. She dreams up the perfect way to help the ghosts fill their library with wonderful stories. David Mellingas funny, highly-detailed, full-color illustrations complement his amusing tale. They include a cleverly extended three-panel illustration with a gatefold and three two-page spreads that tell Boas story in purely pictorial images.

Bo was reading her favorite book, when without warning ...

the lights went out!


Bo felt a cold chill.


Whispers sniffled and snuffled in the dark. Shadows shivered closer.


A clammy hand grabbed Bo’s book . . .


“GOT IT!” squealed a voice!





Boys and girls who have enjoyed The Ghost Library will also want to read two more of David Melling’s funny and captivating books: The Kiss That Missed and The Tale of Jack Frost.



Praise for The Kiss That Missed:


“Readers will find both the text and the playful color cartoon illustrations amusing. Melling captures great expressions in his caricatures....”
