Nine-and-¾-year-old Poppy Malone does not believe in ghosts. Or vampires. Or Bigfoot. Or werewolves or goblins or ghouls. So life with her parents, famous paranormal investigators who follow the grant money (And The paranormal activity) from one town (and school) To The next is a bit of a challenge for Poppy. It's a challenge for her siblings, too-twin brother Will; teenage sister Franny; and Rolly, The baby. When A Gaggle of Goblins opens, The Malones are moving. Again.

This time their destination is Austin, Texas, and Poppy can't wait. She has a feeling . maybe this house and this town will be a normal home, at last and forever. What Poppy doesn't expect is that this time she is the one who witnesses the suspicious paranormal activity! Funny, spooky, fast-paced, and chock-full of actual paranormal information, facts, and discoveries!.
