What could be worse for a ghost than not being frightening enough? That''s Spooker''s problem as he faces his Practical Haunting examinations at the Anne Boleyn Secondary School, under the watchful eye of the Inspectre-ate and Sir Rupert Grimsdyke (who''s definitely not Spooker''s favourite teacher). He isn''t helped by the fact that he''s sent for training to a brand-new house in Buttercup Avenue - not at all the kind of dingy, creaky building in which ghosts feel most comfortable. Spooker must find a way to spook the most unspookable people imaginable . . . Or maybe ghosts don''t have to be scary, after all?

Our hero is Jess, the long-suffering apprentice to the demanding and rather self-centred witches, Agnes Moonthistle and Sybil Higginbotham. The top lifestyle TV show, Changing Brooms (which bears an uncanny resemblance to another popular TV show) offers all three the chance to get what they really want in the world - using a little magic to help things along - with hilarious and unexpected results! With the gentle humour and tremendous sympathy for her characters that distinguished Spook School, Sue Purkiss has created another winning novel for newly-confident readers.
Acclaim for the series: ''...a quartet of books with robust child appeal ... the brief is clearly to appeal to those recently emerging from reading schemes but requiring continuing support. But the stories have a fresh originality that will make them great favourites'' - Lindsey Fraser, Guardian Education Book of the Week, 13/05/03.
