The Great Ghost Rescue

With a beautiful cover illustration by Alex T. Smith, creator of the Claude series, The Great Ghost Rescue is a wonderfully spooky young fiction title from the award-winning author of Journey to the River Sea , Eva Ibbotson. ''Nobody knew what had gone wrong with Humphrey. Perhaps it was his ectoplasm . . .'' Humphrey the Horrible sounds scary, but he''s actually a very friendly skeleton, with twinkling eye sockets and jangling finger bones. Humphrey dreams of being ghastly, like his brother - a screaming skull - or terrifying, like his bloodsucking vampire-bat cousins. But when Humphrey discovers an evil plot to exorcise his family, he finally realizes you don''t have to be spine-chillingly fearsome to be a hero.
