About the author

Robert Bright was born on Cape Cod, Massachusetts in 1902 and passed away in San Francisco in 1988. He spent his childhood in Europe and completed his education at Phillips Academy, Andover, and Princeton University.

His vocations included those of newspaper reporter in Baltimore and Paris, art and music critic in Sante Fe, New Mexico, teacher in Boston, and novelist. Believing that "the imaginative child in the imaginative man is fortunately never far away," Mr. Bright has delighted in writing his numerous books for children. Many of these star Georgie, the friendly little ghost who first appeared in 1944 and has been charming young readers on both sides of the Atlantic ever since.

This was my favorite story when I was young. My sister used to read it to me. I remember asking her to read it over and over again, and I never got sick of it. The pictures were beautiful and the story had a dreamy quality to it (you'll see why if you read it:) It is difficult to find these days, as it's old, published in 1951. I read it to my daughter and she loves it too!

My copy is likely my mom's, and seems to be missing the first page or two. But I read it to The Boy today and I really liked it. (and HE didn't try to turn the pages on me)
