No Such Thing

"No Such Thing is spooky without ever being scary — just the right kind of silly ghost-story for the run-up to Hallowe'en. Artist/author Ella Bailey has done a wonderful job of telling a story with pictures and words, and there are delightful visual flourishes on every page, conveying the full flavor of Georgia's increasing insistence that there must be a rational explanation for all these things." —Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing

"Bailey has created a gorgeous world [...] from the furniture and wallpaper to the food in the fridge. Every bit is pleasing to look at. The text is playful and ever-so-slightly sarcastic, which appeals to all different audiences. Georgia's character is so important in this book because she is a strong female role model. [...] No Such Thing is definitely an A+ book, one that every young reader should have in their collection." —This Picture Book Life
