(2) K-3 Though the text, which recalls a pet-owner's manual, serves as a how-to for any would-be ghost-owner, the gouache and colored-pencil illustrations follow one girl-and-ghost pair throughout the girl's life. The forever friend is right by her side until the end and "even after." With rosy cheeks and wide eyes, this ghost is not just not-scary but utterly endearing. A tongue-in-cheek but strangely sweet picture book about enduring friendship.
