Wee Boo is a ghost who wants nothing more than to earn her haunting license like all the other accredited ghosts. The problem? Sheâs far too cute to scare anyone! Sheâs given one last chance, with extraordinarily low standards: Boo doesnât need to make anyone scream or gasp or shudder, she just needs one âwhoaâ to earn her place as a certified ghost. But she's running out of chances and her final haunting is not going wellâthat is until she meets a baby. When Boo makes the baby laugh, she realizes something: although sheâs terrible as a scary ghost, she might just make an outstanding imaginary friend. And a baby laughing in a crib at an invisible friend might just be enough to spook someone after allâthe baby's parents.
