Bookroo's summary

A timid ghost struggles to become scarier at haunting school, but he's terrified of his own screams. One dark October night, a mysterious knock on his door forces him to confront his fears to protect his home and tiny cats. Can this gentle ghost find the courage to scare away the unknown threat, or will his timid nature prevail? Discover the unexpected bravery in this charming tale of self-discovery and courage.

From the publisher

Each day the teeny tiny ghost goes to haunting school to try to become scarier. It’s hard work, though – especially since he’s frightened by his own screams! Then, one bat-black October night, the teeny tiny ghost is floating in his teeny tiny home when he hears a RAP TAP TAP on the door. And then he knows it’s up to him to keep himself and his teeny tiny cats safe. But what are the chances that a teeny tiny timid ghost will really be able to scare someone away?
