The listing, Mr Broom's Ghost (hardcover) has ended.
Great book with really cute illustrations.-------------My, oh my, it's been a cold winter this year. Why it's been so cold we've had to fire a gun up the chimney three times a day to blast through the smoke that froze. It was so cold all the red barns in the county turned blue and sunlight took to freezing on the ground. But the strangest thing happening on the McBroom farm is that a mimicking ghost has turned up. It can do dead-on imitations of everything from a crowing rooster to John Philip Sousa's marching band. The McBroom series comes from the tall tale tradition and in this installment, the family gets themselves a ghost-pointing mongrel named Zip who can plant a row of corn straight as you please, but just can't seem to find the ghost.
