Johnny Boo: The Best Little Ghost In The World (Johnny Boo Book 1)

James Kochalka,James Kochalka

Johnny Boo is the best little ghost in the whole world, because he’s got Boo Power. This means that he can go BOO really loudly. His pet ghost, Squiggle, has Squiggle Power, which means that he can fly and do really fast loop-the-loops. Together they have the world’s greatest ghost adventures! When the giant pink and yellow Ice Cream Monster bumbles into their lives, they go into a mad panic… until they discover that he’s actually quite friendly.

Review

This book was on lots of the Best Kids Graphic Novels of 2008 lists in the US, and it’s not difficult to see why. Johnny Boo is a very excitable young ghost who likes to hang out with his equally excitable best friend Squiggle, exercising their BOO! powers and obsessing about ice cream.

When they meet the lurid pink and yellow Ice Cream Monster, some very swishy, slurpy and burpy adventures ensue. Johnny Boo is great fun and full of silliness and humour, but it also has some nice messages about how to treat your friends.

This is a great book to introduce really young kids from age four to the comic book/graphic novel form. The illustrations are bold, cute and colorful, and each page contains only three of four simple panels.
