My rating: four out of five stars


I loved this book. I think any kid can relate to Robert's overactive imagination. The illustrations were beautifully drawn and fun to look at. Robert becomes scared of the things he is imagining in his home and his grandfather gives him a piece of advice. He takes that advice to heart and uses it while on a ghost train with his friends. He really enjoys his ride and even tricks his friends into thinking the ghost train monsters have come out.

Overall this book gets four stars. A great one to share with the family leading up to Halloween.

The Pickle family love living at the Hungry Horse Cafe. However, they're not getting much sleep because something is making peculiar noises in the night, and things are going missing too. Is the cafe haunted by a greedy ghost? Can the Pickles solve the mystery of what is going bump in the night?

I thought this book was super cute. I like that the chapters are short and easy enough for an early reader to get through without getting discouraged. I also really liked that it wasn't scary but still had a Halloween theme. The idea of a ghost who can cook is kinda silly, but I think my girls would love it. Overall this one gets four stars.
