Georgie and the Noisy Ghost

Reach for this book when your child is feeling anxious about strange noises or finds themselves awake and worried during the night. While many stories treat ghosts as things to be feared, Robert Bright presents a world where the 'spooky' is simply misunderstood and in need of a friend. It is a perfect choice for settling nerves before a first family vacation or a move to a new environment. The story follows the gentle Georgie and his friends as they accompany the Whittakers to a seaside cottage. Upon arrival, they encounter Captain Hooper, a loud and seemingly scary ghost. However, the narrative quickly shifts from a haunting to a mission of kindness. This classic tale emphasizes that what we perceive as frightening is often just someone who is lonely or feeling out of place. It is ideal for children aged 3 to 7 who are developing their sense of empathy and learning to navigate their own fears of the unknown.
