Synopsis

Adapted by Vanessa Bates from Gabrielle Wang s award-winning novel, A Ghost in my Suitcase is an action-packed adventure story that crosses cultural and spiritual worlds. Twelve-year-old Celeste -- 'half French, half Chinese and all Australian' -- travels to China to scatter her mother s ashes. There she meets her grandmother, Por Por, a quirky and wise woman with an unusual skill. Por Por is a ghost-hunter and her services are much in demand. When Celeste learns she may have inherited her grandmother s talent, she must decide whether to acknowledge her gifts and use them to save her family and friends -- and if she has the strength needed for the job. Filled with fantastical characters from this world and the next, A Ghost in my Suitcase is a beautifully told tale of mystery, grief, difference and acceptance.
