Calico Chapter Books: Ghost Detectors series.
Illustrated by
Howard McWilliam.
In books seven through ten, young ghost detectives Malcolm and Dandy encounter bubblegum that tries to chew them up, a haunted school bus, a not-so-sweet sugar-factory ghost bent on revenge, and a pharaoh's curse. Stilted dialogue aside, the large print, simple plots, and comic-style illustrations make these light books accessible for those not ready for Goosebumps. Review covers these Calico Chapter Books: Ghost Detectors titles: Curses!, Honk!, Never! Never! Never!, and Pop!.
