From the Back Cover
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....”
—School Library Journal
[front flap]
THE GHOST LIBRARY
Written and illustrated by David Melling
One evening, as Bo is reading an especially funny tale about a witch with stinky feet, all the lights go out. Before she can recover from this sudden total darkness, a clammy hand grabs at her book. She closes her eyes and holds on tight—until she and her story book are whisked away to a very strange place. When she opens her eyes, she finds herself standing in an enormous, spooky room filled with empty shelves. Why are there so many shelves in this spooky old room? And why is every last shelf completely empty? Bo has just entered The Ghost Library!
