About the Author
Cathy Brett has been scribbling stuff since she could hold a crayon - on paper, on walls, sometimes on her sister! At school she was hopeless at maths and cross-country running but quite good at scribbling and doodling (achieving A-Levels in both). She attended Doodling College then doodled professionally for a number of years - as a fashion illustrator, as a jet-setting spotter of global trends and as a consultant to the behemoths of the British high street - until trying children's book doodling and having a go at scribbling them too. She lectures in design and visits schools around the country, trying to convince students, teachers and parents that scribbling and doodling are proper jobs.
From Booklist
Goth British teen Scarlett Dedd accidentally kills her entire family by making some really bad risotto, and then discovers that being a dead Dedd is no easier than being an alive Dedd. Her mother, father, and brother are still annoying, and it’s just as difficult to get used to a maturing body when you’re a ghost, so with some advice from a beyond-the-grave “emo-teen chat room,” she decides to creatively kill her best friends so that they can hang out together, specter-style. JP, Taz, Rip, and Psycho catch on to Scarlett’s haunting though, and convincing her they’re better off living, they all team up to make amateur horror films and thwart some thieves attempting to break into the Dedds’ now-haunted house. This relatively superficial story is made rather entertaining by black humor; phantom puke; exotic Britishisms; and a fantastic interior design with lots of large illustrations, blog posts, and dynamic text layouts. While dark, this is lighter and more innocent than most books with adolescent poltergeist protagonists. Grades 6-9. --Andrew Medlar
