Surrounded by scientists who want to study him and remove his brain, Cog recruits four robot accomplices for a mission to find her.

How to Make Friends with a Ghost

This helpful guidebook is useful for anyone looking to create a lifelong (and beyond) friendship with a ghost! Tips include:

  1. Never put your hand through a ghost (it can cause a serious tummy ache).
  2. Feed your ghost with treats like moldy toast and pickled boogers.
  3. Sing to your ghost in eerie hums and wails.

Befriending ghosts, just like befriending people, requires patience, understanding, and empathy. Recommended for ages 5–8.
