Goodreads
“The Shadow & the Ghost” is the unlikely tale of friendship between a ghost who would rather look at the stars than haunt houses, and a shadow who just wants someone to talk to. The ghost is awake at night, and the shadow is awake during the day. But they slowly get to know each other, over many days and nights, by leaving notes and gifts for each other, and inventing games to play. Finally, through the magic of a shower of shooting stars, they finally get to meet face to face. This is a nice story of friendship against the odds, with unlikely characters and cute illustrations. Recommended for ages 5-6 (Kindergarten to 1st Grade).
