In "Dial a Ghost" by Kirsten Meyer, young readers are transported to a world where ghosts are not merely spooky; they are part-time help for the living. When a boy named William discovers a unique way to communicate with ghosts through a quirky service, he enlists their assistance to navigate the challenges of everyday life. However, chaos ensues when the ghosts he summons have their own agendas, leading to humorous and heartwarming escapades. The story explores themes of friendship, bravery, and the importance of embracing the unexpected, all while delivering a delightful blend of adventure and supernatural fun.
