Calico Ghosts is a collection of thirteen folksy Alabama ghost tales certain to put a delicious tingle down your spine. These stories are founded on truth, layered in history, dosed with creativity, pinched with horror and a smattered with humor. A child who sees a black and tan coonhound reflected as her image in her mirror...romantic shape shifters...a magical spring in an enchanted wood...a man who can heal the sick and charm snakes with his music...an old book that whispers...a haunted attic...a ghost who weeps for her lost love...all woven together in one unique calico-quilt of a book. Turn these pages for a stroll through the colorful world of Calico, Alabama. P.S. Being a dedicated hands-on educator and firmly believing in interactive learning, Morrison has included no less than THIRTEEN ghostly errors in the text of this spooky little book for her readers to find. But like missed stitches in a CALICO quilt, there may be more! So just count those extras as "unique flaws in the quilting process."
