Cute story about 2 ghosts and a witch's ghost who haunt a manor house. They've successfully driven off all the occupants over the years. The manor is bought by a corporation. It's planned as housing for a corporate employee.
Jackie, a 7YO special needs child and her parents move in. Dad thinks the place is really spooky but Jackie and her Mom love the old place. Jackie can even see the ghosts.
Jackie and Boo become friends as the ghost sneaks into the kitchen at night to steal food, especially ice cream. Boo dishes some up for Jackie and they chat. Boo keeps these meetings from Tomfoolery and Anna. He's not sure how they would feel about Jackie being in on their existence.
Jackie has some adventures with the ghosts as she grows up. Because of her special needs she doesn't make many friends over the years but cherishes her friendship with the ghosts.
This was a very nice ghost story that would be appropriate for younger readers - middle grades and up. There are a few scary moments but not anything that a bright kid couldn't handle.
