"The best little ghost in the world," and his pet ghost, Squiggle, are back in their most delicious adventure yet! It's a new delightful romp for young readers and families from the award-winning imagination of Vermont's first Cartoonist Laureate, James Kochalka.
James Kochalka is, without question, one of the most unique and
prolific alternative cartoonists working in America today. His
comics have been published internationally by almost every
alternative comics publisher; he's recorded several music albums
under the name James Kochalka Superstar (making him a favorite at
college radio stations across the country); and he's developed
animated cartoons for Nickelodeon and Cartoon Hangover.
He is the first official Cartoonist Laureate of the state of
Vermont, appointed in 2011.
Among his best known works are the Monkey vs Robot series, the
beloved Johnny Boo and Dragon Puncher series for children, and his
magnum opus, the decade-plus span of daily diary comics known as
American Elf. James lives in Burlington, Vermont with his wife,
Amy; their two sons; and their cats, all of whom appear frequently
in his comics.
