MEDIA REVIEWS
‘Children will love the concept of being able to spot what the young girl can’t and Jeffers’ dryly funny visual jokes on the elusiveness of spirits finish with a cliffhang . . . Another absolute winner from this inventive author’ Daily Mail ‘A delightful interactive story for Halloween, long on spectres but short on scares . . . Hauntingly adorable’ Guardian ‘the bestselling author pushes the boundaries of the picture book form . . . The giggling ghouls unseen by the girl may have little readers shouting “he’s behind you!” but there’s nothing panto-esque about this smart and inventive book’ Guardian “Thrilling” Big Issue
