Description

A little ghost with big dreams learns to define success on his own terms in a spookily satisfying story for our times from Lenny Wen.

Everything in the meadow, from hugging the trees to stargazing with friends, fills Wolfgang with joy.

His ambition, though, is to become the great spirit of the Dark Castle. So Wolfgang strives to perfect his spooking skills, practicing day and night. When Wolfgang wins the honor of haunting the shadowy halls, he is very good at it...but if being a great spirit means leaving his beloved meadow behind, is it good for him?

Critical Reviews

"A whimsical story about carving one's own path and staying true to oneself." -- Kirkus Reviews

"Encourages viewers to embrace everything that fulfills them [and is] an excellent pick for any kid who finds equal joy in the cute and the creepy."

-- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"Working in graphite, gouache, and colored pencil strokes, Wen gives the spreads a smudgy but delicate quality that helps paint a gentle portrait of Wolfgang's all-too-human need to achieve work/afterlife balance." -- Publishers Weekly
