Summary
Another hilarious brain-tingling story from Morris Gleitzman.
“A gently entertaining story about one lonely boy. Highly recommended.” - ReadPlus
The kitchen was a mess. Packets and jars had been flung around. Half the stuff in the fridge was on the floor. There was a trail of flour running through the passage.

What They're Saying
Critics Review
’…demonstrates his usual down-to-earth Aussie humour and empathy. In his inimitable way of mixing scary reality with comedy, Gleitzman sensitively introduces the subject of the cruel children’s homes that are a shameful part of Australia’s past into an often knockabout story of ghosts, impossible guests and the mysterious Mr Goff.’ THE GUARDIAN (Kit Spring)
