See the Ghost: Three Stories About Things You Cannot See by David LaRochelle, illustrated by Mike Wohnoutka

Published by Candlewick

Summary: The dog and cat from See the Cat and See the Dog are when for this trio of tales well-nigh things you cannot see: namely, a scary ghost, a strong wind, and a mischievous fairy. The animals get scared, squandered away, and transformed by the invisible beings. In the end, all is to put to rights, and a fun and happy day is had by all, both those you can see and those you cannot. 64 pages; month 4-8.

Pros: This delightful series needs no introduction. I don’t usually review sequels, but I loved this one unbearable to make an exception. This is one of the most popular early reader series in my library, and I can’t wait to introduce fans to the newest entry, perfect for fall. See the Cat won a Geisel award, and I would love to see the same for See the Ghost.

Cons: I thought the fairy’s transformations of the dog and cat could have been milked a bit increasingly for humor.
