One chilly autumn night, Fledermaus proposes telling fireside ghost stories, even as timid Pedro—the team newcomer—worries about the possibility of nightmares. Nevertheless, Millie recounts the story of the Ghostly Galleon, a pirate ship that sank years ago yet is rumored to still haunt the seas. Fledermaus and Pedro begin sniffing around nearby Bramble Isle, where locals have seen the ship nearly every night. They meet Farmer Wheatley, who warns them to stay away from the bay, lest they encounter the ghosts. The pair offer to help him with his harvest; tasked with bringing back a single blackberry, Pedro and Fledermaus eventually find themselves right by the haunted bay. Of course, they spy the ghostly ship, crewed by white-sheeted figures, and adventure ensues as Pedro and Fledermaus, joined by the rest of their friends, don sheets of their own and attempt to infiltrate the ghostly crew. Readers will be tickled to see Pedro and Fledermaus swapping roles over the course of the narrative: Pedro shakes off his anxiety and rises to the occasion while Fledermaus cowers. A speedy pace, well-differentiated characters, frequent illustrations that complement the text, and an unexpected, satisfying ending that speaks to the power of community will keep interest high and pages turning.
