Update Friday: Grandpa's Ghost Stories


I'll be busy with library sales today. Hitting the road with coffee, kolaches and my vintage muse to see what we might find along the way. While I'm out sniffing around for new things to share, here's an update that is timed for the upcoming season. For Update Friday, please welcome a post from back in '08, Grandpa's Ghost Stories by James Flora. I've dusted if off and provided new, super spooky scans.

And just in case you were looking for something else to do today, here's a list of some of the all time favorite books I've written about on this blog,

Zarelda's Ogre by Tomi Ungerer

Mr. Meebles by Jack Kent

Bubble Bubble by Mercer Mayer

Switch on the Night by Ray Bradbury

The Man Who Lost His Head by Bishop and McCloskey

The Animal Fair by The Provensens

Who's Got the Apple by Jan Loof

The Zabajaba Jungle by William Steig

The Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl

Man, oh, man, I could go on and on and on so I'd better stop there.

And last but not least, I've got another paperback of The Fat Cat by Jack Kent on the Etsy site. Slightly less perfect than the last one, but still in great condition. Again, I've priced it cheaply for you guys, but get it now before some stranger snaps it up.

Let's all collectively make a point today to not steal anyone's joy. OK?
