The Ghostwriter franchise had a genuinely good literacy mission, and a year-round activity book celebrating everything from National Kazoo Day to Chinese New Year has a sweet, inclusive spirit. But 1993 is a long time ago, and a TV tie-in activity book with no narrative and no current critical documentation does not have much to offer over modern alternatives. A pleasant curiosity for Ghostwriter fans, not a general pick.
