Little Boo! series.
Every time Ghost models a new garment, a harmless-looking Frankenstein's monster snatches it and makes it part of his ensemble. The plot is thin, but as with Ghost Eats It All!, very young kids will respond well to the book's funny illustrations, small trim size, and mild plot.

Little Boo! Books series.
With each turning page, Ghost enjoys another delicacy (ice cream, a fried egg, pizza, etc.) while a hungry Frankenstein's monster looks on. The monster finally shouts "Boo!" and Ghost flees, leaving behind treats (they fall out of Ghost's translucent white body). The punch line isn't much, but it works well enough in this jocularly illustrated, small-scale book.
