Description

A playful, delightfully illustrated book that sets the record straight about ghosts. Ghosts are not sheets with holes dragging around a ball and chain. Indeed, they're just as colorful and diverse as humans. Here you'll meet the ghost of the chimney, the TV, the kitchen, and the library, to mention just a few.

Marc Boutavant is a graphic artist, illustrator, and comic strip author. He was born in in Borgogne in 1970 and lives in Paris, France. He has illustrated many books and is especially well known for his book Around the World with Mouk.

Reviews

"... GHOSTS is a whimsical introduction to the domestic variety of ghost populating the bedrooms and kitchens of our homes. [...] GHOSTS may be the stuff of nightmares, but these guys are an exceedingly likeable bunch of spooks." - 32 Pages blog "This is a great read around the holiday season for the whole family and children as young as four." - Momma's Bacon "The details in these pictures is astounding. Each spread has quirky spooks and spooky quirks, and each of these ghosts has enough character to erase that old, boring ball and chain ... Perfect for anyone who likes mini-stories, visual feasts, and the fun of being scared." -- Design of the Picture Book
