Nowhere for a Ghost to Sleep cover

Little Ghost is very sleepy.

She looks everywhere for a bed to sleep:

in a house, in a barn, on a boat – even on the moon.

But everyone everywhere is too afraid of ghosts to let her in!

Until the little ghost finds a very special place …

A heartwarming tale about belonging.

Told through rhyming text, this is a kooky tale filled to the brim with humour and with a delightful ghost main character that readers will be rooting for from the outset. This is the third collaboration by McGann and McFarland, and there is a quirky timelessness to the stories they tell together. Little Ghost should have no trouble finding a resting place on any shelf!
