Description

“In the quiet attic of a large house lives a little ghost.
Alone.
Just as he likes it.”

The little ghost spends long nights swooping up and down, and round and round — having fun, all by himself. He has no need to leave his dark and dusty attic; in fact he’s actually rather worried about leaving.

Until one day his peace is disturbed by a curious girl. The little ghost sulks: why won’t the annoying and slightly scary child leave him alone? So, the grumpy ghoul decides to do what ghosts do best…

But this little girl isn’t easily frightened.

This wryly funny story about adapting to change, facing your fears and having the courage to open yourself up to others is brought to life by Japanese author-illustrator Mamiko Shiotani’s beautifully soft and textured artwork.
