Mr Crabley's Ghost

By James Webb

Old Mr Crabley didn't much like being alive, but he disliked being dead even more. And when the Wallaces move into his bungalow, Mr Crabley goes from grumpy to furious and tries his hardest to cause all kinds of ghostly havoc. Bookish Sybil resents Mr Crabley's efforts to push her family out. However, she begins to grow curious about what made this grumpy ghost quite so sad.

Whilst her embarrassing parents seek out help to fix their haunted new home, Sybil embarks upon a mission to mend Mr Crabley's broken heart.

A little kindness goes a long way. And a little further for Mr Crabley's ghost.

Mr Crabley's Ghost is a hilarious and sweet tale of ghostly antics, foolish parents and a lesson in the value of kindness. James Webb gives us an unexpected friendship that surely warms hearts.

James Webb has become the author he is through a variety of life experiences. Some of those experiences come from time as a church minister in the UK, many from years spent in Australia, but probably the most from raising his five (yes, five ) children. His storytelling strives to put something of what he's learned into words, but also embraces the fun of crafting characters and playing with words. In this new chapter of his writing, he moves from his award-winning curation of short stories to something a little new. James currently lives in Canterbury with his wife and family.
