Description
Perfect for fans of Gustavo the Shy Ghost, this laugh-out-loud picture book puts a charming twist on the classic haunted house tale--a funny, spook-tacular read for Halloween or any time of year.
Leonard the cheerful, can-do ghost is building his family members a new haunted house. It needs to be the scariest house EVER! Except the more Leonard builds, the less creepy their new home looks. From the un-scary cellar to the snug roof that doesn't leak, it's nothing like the house of horrors his family imagined . . . or is it? Mike Ciccotello's Leonard Builds a Haunted House is a hilariously triumphant tale about family, moving, house-building--and the spirit it takes to make something truly you.

Critical Reviews
"Leonard and his ghostly family are a typical spooky bunch, living in a haunted house until the town decides to demolish it to make room for a fun plex. Rather than mourning, Leonard gets to work: he finds a new plot, researches construction, and begins to build a new home . . . This is another winner from Ciccotello that blends heart and humor in both text and illustration. A fun, feel-good story about self-expression with a spooky twist, perfect all year around or the Halloween shelves." --School Library Journal
"Ciccotello amusingly draws on haunted house tropes in this crisp, construction-oriented picture book about a crew of ghosts who seek to build a dream home after developers buy their condemned residence." --Publishers Weekly "Construction fans will go for the building parts, and the ghosts are admittedly quite endearing." --Kirkus Reviews
