Things are getting weird on Odd Street. And that’s saying something — because it’s already home to kids with more imagination than homework.

In Agatha Parrot and the Odd Street School Ghost, Kjartan Poskitt serves up a laugh-out-loud mystery packed with spooky school rumors, flying sandwiches, exploding shoes, and one very suspicious ghost sighting. Yep, this is school life turned upside down — and Agatha is right in the middle of it.

Agatha’s voice? Hilarious. She tells the story like she’s chatting with you over lunch (except her lunch might be haunted). One moment she’s joking about teachers with scary hair, the next she’s leading an investigation into a ghost no one else believes is real. Or do they?

Here’s one gem from the book:

“I was just writing something really important when my pencil exploded. Again.”
That gives you a pretty good idea of the chaos level here.

This is perfect for 8–12-year-olds who love fast-paced, silly-but-smart stories. Think Tom Gates or Diary of a Wimpy Kid — but with a haunted twist. Parents love it too, because it gets even the most reluctant readers flipping pages with giggles.

So, is there really a ghost in Odd Street School? Or is Agatha making it up?

You’ll have to read it to find out — but either way, it’s going to be hilario
