      About This Book

      An exquisite and magical tale about stories, and a girl who teaches ghosts how to have an endless supply of their own stories—features a glow-in-the-dark cover and a two-page foldout
       
      The ghost library is a room full of empty shelves where the ghosts go to listen to stories borrowed from unsuspecting children—until they try to borrow a book from Bo. Unable to let her book go, Bo travels with the ghosts to the ghost library, and there she teaches them that stories exist everywhere, not just in books. Exquisitely illustrated, this tale explores the tradition and importance of storytelling, using stories within the story.
