'Shiver-me, shake-me!' said Bertie. The forest at midnight can be a scary place. Bertie has just set out on his first haunting. It's a journey that makes our little ghost feel jumpy: through a dark and lonely wood, past a howling wolf, a hissing snake, and a roaring dragon! So when he reaches a big old castle, Bertie doesn't really feel like haunting, he feels like hiding: especially when he's chased up the stairs by a dog. It's only when Bertie takes refuge in a draughty attic that he finds the perfect place to take up his position as resident ghost. A spine-tingling bedtime story that explores feelings of overcoming anxieties and feeling secure.

Format:Hardcover
This is a lovely book about a frightened little ghost trying to find somewhere nice to haunt and getting frightened by the big bad world. ( I was actually quite scared myself when the wolf appeared!) Each page is beautifully illustrated and I particularly liked the small details such as the button plates and thimble vase in the tiny castle. Look out for the little cast of characters looking on from above too.

I think for younger children this is excellent - my 4 year old usually likes things with a bit more bite but she insisted I bought her this. She's obsessed with ghosts & skeletons & things like this, but this is suitable for the easily-spooked.
A little ghost is afraid of all the scary things he encounters in the wood and eventually finds a tiny toy castle in a scary big castle, and some teeny tiny dolls/fairies (not sure which) who are looking for a tiny ghost to haunt them. So everyone's happy.
The illustrations are gorgeous, the text is full of nicely worded repetitions that small children will love. It has no edge, and I like an edge. My 2 and 4 year olds both like it a lot.
