Zack Files 03: A Ghost Named Wanda Paperback - 1996

by Dan Greenburg; Jack E. Davis (Illustrator)

Primary graders will love these illustrated first chapter books about Zack, an unflappably normal 10-year-old New Yorker to whom strange things keep happening. In A Ghost Named Wanda, a supernatural force that flips pancakes and makes the TV float is at work in Zack's apartment.


Summary

My room is a mess. Now, usually this is not big news. But my clothes have started moving...when I'm not inside them. And the TV is floating across the room! Guess what! I'm sharing my room with a ghost named Wanda.
