Bookroo's summary

In a quaint, cobwebby house, creaky hinges and banging pipes suggest a haunting. Desperate for a family, the house tries to suppress her spooky nature. But can she find a family who embraces her eerie charm, or will she discover that being herself is enough? Join this whimsical journey as the house learns the true meaning of home.

From the publisher

From the bestselling creator of Not Quite Narwhal comes a delightfully spooky story about an old house who wants to be a home…even if her new family isn’t what she expected. House has a problem. She’s a little spooky. She’s a little cobwebby. Oh, no! What if she’s haunted? She’s not sure, but…her hinges creak. Her pipes bang. And on windy days, the branches scritch-scratch at her windows. She tries to hold her breath and be as still as possible. If she’s on her best behavior, maybe a family will move in. How will House ever find a family that doesn’t mind being haunted?
