Review:

An enjoyable Christmas themed novella.  The main character is a ghost named Marmaduke.   He is a stodgy, kind of uptight and rigid ghost of 71 years.  But as he is hanging out in a Christmas tree lot, he notices a young boy (Samuel), who appears to be all alone.  They begin a dialogue, which is both funny at times and heart-warming.

Samuel has only asked for a friend for Christmas.  He thinks he has received his gift early when he happens upon Marmaduke.  This just won’t do…according to Marmaduke.  So he sets out to find Samuel a friend before Christmas.

A fun, quick read, with an abundance of Christmas feel good cheer in the end 🙂
