8+: Frightfully Friendly Ghosties: Ghostly Hollerday - Darren King

Release Date: 02/09/10

BOOK BLURB:

It's winter and what better than a ghostly holler-day by the sea? But how are Tabitha Tumbly, Charlie Vapour, Humphrey Bump and the other ghosties to decide between Frighten-on-Sea and Scare-borough? A postcard from their friend Headless Leslie decides for them: Headless is in Frighten and cannot remember how to get home. He wrote the address on the postcard, then he forgot what the address was. I'd lose my head if it wasn't screwed on which it isn't.' So the friends descend on Frighten and set off on an exciting ghostie caper, involving a haunted Frighten pier, a mysterious phantom magician, a fun fair and an extremely infuriating Headless Leslie.


REVIEW:

A weird little offering and one that’s quirky enough to appeal to the young reader as our ghostly pals take a trip to Frighten-On-Sea for their Holler Day. Full of ghostly frolics, a touch of magic and a gang of characters that readers will just love to hang around with, their power each aid the group to achieve their goal with fiendishly ghostly fun that will give the reader a ghoulishly enjoyable experience.
