The Super Tiny Ghost

by Marilee Joy Mayfield, Catty Flores (Illustrator)

It was the night before Halloween and the super tiny ghost had one dream. He wanted to be wild and frightening with boos like thunder and eyes like lighting. He had never looked like a big scary monster before, so he hoped he could terrify humans for just one night. Follow along the super tiny ghost's journey as he discovers that scaring people may not be the ultimate goal. Everywhere the super tiny ghost went, people would laugh or just ignore him. They didn't think he was spooky at all, but the ghost was determined to be frightening on Halloween. When the littlest ghost finally started to scare humans, he made a baby cry. The ghost felt so sad, so he took off his disguise. The super tiny ghost realizes that bringing joy is what matters most. This kid's Halloween book will teach young readers that it's okay to embrace who you are instead of trying to be something that you're not. When the super tiny ghost fails to be scary, he feels like a failure and it makes him sad. He's determined to appear spooky, but when he finally is, he realizes that it's not what makes him unique at all and that he rather be kind. Marilee Joy Mayfield has taught thousands of children inspiring lessons of love, friendship, and family with books like A Mother's Love, Growing Up Sisters, A Friend Is Someone Who, The Snowman's Song, Seasons of Life, The Lights In The Church, and The Book Fairy.

This was a super cute book. Perfect for Halloween. My six-year-old granddaughter loved it. I have a feeling I am going to be reading it a lot during the next month. 🎃
