When you're a quilt instead of a sheet, being a ghost is hard! But it does mean you can float around in cold weather.(goodreads summary)
The Little Ghost Quilt loves being outside in the winter. When he flies around, his quilt makes him feel warm and cozy and the falling snowflakes make his quilt patches look like he has polka dots. Unfortunately, his ghost friends cannot join him because their thin sheets make them to cold in the frigid air. But when little ghost quilt decides to take a flight into town, he notices the townspeople decorating and having cheery celebrations. Oh, how he wishes he could show his friends these spectacular sites. Seeing the townspeople so joyful during their yuletide festivities gives the little ghost an idea to bring something special to share with his friends too.
This is a wonderful follow up to the first book, The Little Ghost who was a Quilt, which I enjoyed as much as this one. It is the perfect story to cozy up to at the end of a busy day. The text flows nicely for reading aloud and the black and white pencil illustrations have a little bit of holiday colors added making it so charming. It has the warmth of friendship, thinking of others and coming up with a special way to include them in some holiday cheer. To kick off the magic of the upcoming season, this is a sweet book for a cold winter day. I think "just right book" for ages 3-7.~
