The Canterville Ghost - Oscar Wilde
The Canterville Ghost is Oscar Wilde's tale of an American family who moves into a British mansion, Canterville Chase, much to the annoyance of the resident ghost. This story has been widely adapted for the screen and stage. It was the first of Wilde's stories to be published, appearing in the magazine The Court and Society Review in February 1887. It was later included in a collection of short stories entitled Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Other Stories in 1891.

It's a easy book to read, despite the fact it's a classic book. I liked the general humour tone of the novel, specially
I recommend it as a short reading in English

the reactions of the family, not only not scared of the ghost but taking it as a joke all the time |
