Synopsis

Emily Brown and her side-kick rabbit, Stanley, are back!

Halloween has arrived! Emily Brown and Stanley are trying on their costumes when they hear a teeny-tiny "BOO!" from the cupboard under the sink . . . It's a ghost! And not just any ghost: the sweetest one they've ever seen.

But this sweet little ghostie is sad that he's Not-Very-Spooky, and he seems to be more frightened than frightening. Can Emily and Stanley help him to be brave and discover his spook?

'Will both delight fans, and give them something to reflect on. Layton's illustrations are a joy, matching the text perfectly.' - Bookseller

Written by Cressida Cowell, the bestselling author of the How to Train Your Dragon series. http://www.cressidacowell.co.uk/

Illustrated by award winning Neal Layton, creator of Stanley's Stick and illustrator of Danny McGee Drinks The Sea, shortlisted for the 2017 Laugh Out Loud Picture Book Award.

Funny but with a hidden message
This is a cute, entertaining story about a cute ghostie with a lovely message about how fear can be overcome.
