Boo!!: Ghosts I Have(n't) Loved
by Najla MadyBOO!! is a collection of true ghost stories by Najla Mady, Canada’s very own ghostbuster. From voodoo rituals, infant possession, to the antics of gentle, benign spirits, including the famous love affair of Captain Swayze from the War of 1812, who entertained many a guest at the Angel Inn at Niagara-on-the-Lake, Najla recites here a few of her more entertaining ghostly encounters. Najla Mady has been much courted by the media. On her own weekly TV show, A Psychic Hour with Najla, she predicted the assassination of Anwar Sadat. When she is not doing personal counselling, she exorcizes ghosts from homes and other places. EXORCIZES GHOSTS??! Is that the activity of a sane, rational personality, you might ask? Anyone who has had the delight of working with Najla will describe a most down-to-earth person. No dippy, chanting, star-gazing fanatic, this woman. BOO!! represents a departure for most of the literature available in this genre because it is not sensationalist. Najla’s single purpose is to help demystify the world of parapsychology for us ordinary folk who live only (and perhaps regrettably) in the obvious, physical realm.

The son of a doctor, Earle set out to create an easier way for her to bandage her injuries.

Soon Band-Aids were selling like hotcakes, and the rest is boo-boo history."Appealingly designed and illustrated, an engaging, fun story" — Kirkus Reviews STARRED REVIEW
