About The Book
A gripping chapter book for early readers
She sees ghosts
Isabel Wixon is weird. Not only does she see dead things, but her list of friends consists of a talkative ventriloquist's dummy and the gentlemanly spider that lives in her hair.
Her best friend is a gentleman spider
Real friends? Too hard. Inventing friends is much easier.
An invention goes horribly wrong
Inventing the Boatman—a terrible monster that lures kids into a strange sleeping sickness and never lets them go—probably wasn't one of her better ideas though.
