A rollicking mystery with an unexpected hero, this fully-illustrated chapter book continues the adventures of Ghoulia, a lovable, not-so-scary zombie.

One dark and stormy night, Ghoulia's cousin Dilbert comes to visit her at Crumbling Manor. She's confused—she didn't invite him, and it turns out that Dilbert's a real grouch. He complains about everything! When Ghoulia tries to track down Auntie Departed to find out why she invited Dilbert, she finds that Auntie has vanished. Ghoulia can't find her. And the doorbell won't stop ringing. One after another, Ghoulia's friends arrive—all with the same mysterious invitation in hand. As the gang searches Crumbling Manor for Auntie Departed, one of their own goes missing. Finally, Dilbert inadvertently solves the mystery in the greenhouse when he finds himself face-to-face with the sinister Chatterbox Ivy. Clue meets Little Shop of Horrors in this fun romp, which includes full-color illustrations and kid-friendly activities.

      In the second book in this offbeat reluctant-reader-friendly series for the chapter-book set, young zombie Ghoulia must solve the mystery of Auntie Departed's disappearance from Crumbling Manor with the help of unexpected (and very grouchy) visitor Cousin Dilbert. As in �cf2]Ghoulia�cf1], the appeal is in the attractive book design with frequent double-page spreads incorporating text into the colorful gothic-inspired illustrations.

      Young zombie Ghoulia returns in a second book in this reluctant-reader-friendly series for the chapter-book set. Here Ghoulia must solve the mystery of Auntie Departed's disappearance from Crumbling Manor with the help of unexpected (and very grouchy) visitor Cousin Dilbert. As in the first book, the appeal is in the attractive book design with frequent double-page spreads incorporating text into the colorful gothic-inspired illustrations. Funny details in both text and art abound (the doorbell howls rather than rings; a portrait of Alfred Hitchcock hangs on the wall). An offbeat but entertaining choice for Halloween reading. martha v. parravano
