5.0 out of 5 stars Scaredy Ghost
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 5, 2022

This has been one of our go-to Halloween books for the past three years. I first checked it out from the library when my daughter was 3, and she giggled nonstop with every reading. I purchased it the next year and she finds different things funny each Halloween. A joyous, extremely well-designed and written book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cute Book - Bad Shape
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 29, 2022

The story itself is fine, but a little weird. The ghost keeps remarking that he/she is dead. A little emo for a toddler, but the illustrations are cute. However, the condition of the book from this seller is poor. Close to an entire page (the last page with writing) is ripped out of the book.

This is a darling book. It took my kids reading it a few times to get the humor. But it's definitely a favorite and a great addition to our collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Super fun and silly for a slightly older child.

I love reading to my infant, even if he doesn’t understand what I’m reading— he likes my voice and its inflections with my reactions while I read, and bonus points that I enjoy the story! I read this to a friend’s four-year-old recently and she got a big kick out of the inflections and the way I made the story interact with her. Her parents enjoyed the humor. I am not sure young children will get into this as much unless the reader is willing to get into it— lead them through the story a bit (might be confusing for some), and make it fun— if you exceed in this, make sure you’re up for reading it six times in a row.

5.0 out of 5 stars For the sarcastic mom
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 18, 2019

Are you a sarcastic mom who reads to her children in a sarcastic tone because the stories are just so dumb? This book will work for you and your tone actually emphasizes the story and makes the kids giggle. My very visual, very distractible 5 month old girl loves the visuals and my 4 year old boy who is too busy to sit for a whole story actually requests this book as well as Bob Shea’s other work (check out the happiest book ever. Frowny frog is my jam!). I am a pretty gender neutral lady, it have noticed my daughter strong attraction to pink and glitter even with the world of toys at her fingertips. She is blowing my mind. Anyways, fun story, even some laughs from adults if in the right state of mind: great illustrations. It’s fun watching my son recreate my performance to his stuffed animals. Buy it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Adorable book!
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 18, 2017

We LOVE this book! Absolutely LOVE it! It's an adorable story about a ghost being scared, woodland creatures, a cat and donuts. It's far more charming than I realized and it is the best book purchase we've made in awhile. My 4 yr old asks me to read it every night, so I consider it a huge win!

The only negative I have is that the pages are rippling, as if they were exposed to lots of humidity. The box wasn't wet upon arrival, and the book cover wasn't stuck to the cover, so I knew that it wasn't rained on. I do think that during warehouse storage or transportation or it was exposed to humidity because the same book we found in the store had smooth pages.

Overall, I am so happy that we have this book because my son is in love, but I do with that the pages were flat and not rippling.

5.0 out of 5 stars It’s my four year old’s favorite book
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 26, 2019
Verified Purchase
So, I buy too many books. Mainly kids books. I have shelves full in multiple rooms. After I bought this book, and a few others by Mr. Shea, the mountains of books lining my apartment are little more than a possible fire hazard. My son has me read this book multiple times a day and he laughs roarously every time. Granted, I am an exceptional story reader. I’ve got voices, I give characters attitude, I get interactive. This book makes all of that easy and amplifies my super mom reading skills. If you have a kid who suddenly won’t stick around for an entire book, try this one. Laugh at cakes and get real with grumpy frogs.

Guys, this book is legit.
