'Tashi could hardly breathe as more and more ghosts crowded around him.'

Tashi recounts a spooky tale of ghost monsters lurking in the forest. All of the villagers try to come up with ways to scare off the ghosts, but none of them work. Little Tashi, however, has a brilliant solution. Using a naturally occurring eclipse, Tashi tricks the ghosts and scares them off with his ferocious moon-swallowing, red-whiskered dragon-ghost. Young readers will learn to face their fears as they follow Tashi's adventures through imaginative locales like the Mountain of White Tigers.

Tashi's bold! Tashi's brave! Tashi's the best!

Jack has an extraordinary imaginary friend Tashi, a gnome-like character from a place very far away. He arrived here on a swan (it doesn't matter what colour!), he has quite a way with witches and warlords, and he's not afraid of giants or robber barons. Although he's small and not very old, he comes up with some cunning plans in tight situations! And he tells the very best stories.

Addressing themes of courage, curiosity, adventure, daring, and good triumphing over bad, the Tashi series will keep young readers - and young listeners - enthralled with engaging tales and charming illustrations.
