My Friend Walter

A hilarious tale of history come to life, from former children�s laureate and master storyteller, Michael Morpurgo.
 
Living with a ghost can have its difficulties, I discovered, even if he is your friend.
 
Remember Sir Walter Raleigh, who laid his cloak in a puddle so Queen Elizabeth I could walk across? Well, Bess meets his ghost and finds out she�s his ancestor!
 
How will Bess explain Sir Walter to her family? Especially when he breaks her brother�s fishing rod, steals a horse and smokes cigars in her room!
 
Michael Morpurgo demonstrates why he is considered to be the master storyteller, with a uniquely funny take on spirits from the other side.
