Boo the ghost spends his days haunting the local
library and scaring everyone away. But little Poppy thinks she may know
why Boo is acting so scary, and she knows just how to fix it!(goodreads summary)
Here is a cute story about a ghost who haunts a library and loves to scare all the children away! Except a girl named Poppy who loves reading so much that she refuses to leave. Boo tries harder to scare her away by pushing over chairs and knocking over books. But Poppy is not intimidated and realizes that Boo might not know how to read. At first, Boo resists when Poppy wants to teach him but soon realizes how much fun a new friend and reading can be. The rhythmic text flows nicely for reading aloud to a large or small group. Illustrations are colorful and watching Boo go from naughty to sweet and helpful in the end makes him more likable. It is a fun story for the Halloween season or anytime of the year showing the love of reading and libraries. I think this is a "just right book" for ages 4-7.~
