Join the Ghostbusters as they fight some ghoulish creatures in this kid-friendly official picture book adaptation of the classic film

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Setting: New York City. Kid scientists Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, and Egon Spengler are investigating ghosts and other paranormal activity in the city. They see their first ghost (Slimer) in the NYC Public Library, leading them to create the Ghostbusters, setting up their "club" in an old firehouse.

Soon, business is booming as the kids are recruited to capture ghosts throughout the city. Winston Zeddemore and Janine join as well. But there is something sinister happening at an apartment building and the Ghostbusters must put a stop to it (and the Stay Puft marshmallow man) before the city is overrun with ghouls.
