Chronicle Supposing Books Over My Dead Body (43 Old Cemetery Road #2)
The International Movement for the Safety & Protection Of Our Kids & Youth (IMSPOOKY) dictates that Seymour cannot live in the mansion at 43 Old Cemetery Road "without the benefit of parents." Ignatius B. Grumply tries to explain to Dick Tater, the head of IMSPOOKY, that he and Seymour are in a lovely living (and publishing!) arrangement with the ghost of Olive C. Spence. Dick Tater is not convinced. But this clever trio can’t be broken up as easily as he imagines . . .This companion to Dying to Meet You, the first book in the 43 Old Cemetery Road series, is another spooky tale told in letters, drawings, newspaper articles, and television scripts.

Cute continuation of the first book. Gotta love when bad characters get what they deserve and the good guys win.I need to read the rest of the series!!!!
My niece (4th grade) and I read this all in one go because she didnt want to put it down. We enjoyed all the character names once I explained to her that they used something called a play on words, she had fun decoding the knocks and loved the illustrations (especially the floating glasses) and variations on writing medium.

The money they earned enabled Seymour to purchase the house at 43 Cemetery Road and all seems to be set for a happily-ever-after ending until Grumply tries to explain how Olive, a ghost, helps take care of and teach Seymour. Now that Grumply is in a mental institution indefinitely and Seymour is stuck in an orphanage until his
My favorite part was the names. They were very clever in this one. Dick Tater was a horrible tyrant, but his end was so funny. Our trio never gave up, even when they were locked away.I wish Olive could be corporeal to everyone. That would solve a lot of problems.
Over my Dead Body by Kate Klise is a really good book. It is where a man finds out about a kid who believes in ghosts and he thinks that is not good so he bands halloween and scary books. There is a writer and he writes scary books so he went to jail. So the kid, the man and the ghost find out to bring back halloween. So read the book to find out is they will save halloween. I looooooooove this book.
