This giggly ghost story, the first installment of the award-winning 43 Old Cemetery Road series, explores forgiveness, what it means to be a family, and opening one's heart.

When I. B. Grumply moves into the old Victorian mansion on 43 Old Cemetery Road, all he's looking for is some peace and quiet so he can finally finish his next bestseller. But the house is already taken by a boy named Seymour Hope, his cat Shadow, oh, and an irritable ghost named Olive Can this eccentric group help a cranky old man open his heart to new friends? From letters to newspaper articles, a work-in-progress manuscript, and even an occasional tombstone engraving, this quirky epistolary tale by dynamic duo author-illustrator sisters Kate and M. Sarah Klise, is complete with whimsical drawings and pun-tastic hilarity, perfect for even the most tentative reader.
