4.5 stars Children’s
Cute book with the premise that it’s okay to be different. Little Ghose didn’t like being different as he didn’t fit in with the other ghosts that were just like him. Little Ghost wasn’t white like a sheet, he was a patterned quilt. A heavy patterned quilt that could not fly carefree in the sky, like the other ghosts. When Little Ghost attempted such a feat, it would end in disaster.
Playing in the park with his friends one day, Little Ghost couldn’t hide fast like his friends, when they heard someone approaching. What happened at the park that day would change the life of Little Ghost. It would soon be Halloween, Little Ghost favorite day of the year, and he decided that he would do something different this year. No longer would he watch the trick-or-treaters from afar, Little Ghost wants to see them up close.
Little Ghost wants to be brave yet it’s scary doing something different. Little Ghost goes on a new adventure filled with uncertainty and unease, but the experience is well worth it.
I really enjoyed this book and how the story plays out. I liked how Little Ghost wants to try something new and how he attempts it, but he doesn’t go how he anticipated it would. Rather than getting upset or discouraged, he goes with it and waits to see how things play out. It’s a great story for children, I think.
“Everything that had happened was because he was a little bit different. Everything had happened because he was a quilt.”
