Ghostwriter is a dramatic reinvention of the beloved ‘90s children’s series and was part of Apple TV+’s maiden launch lineup, produced in partnership with Sinking Ship Entertainment and Sesame Workshop. When a ghost haunts a neighbourhood bookstore and starts releasing fictional characters into the real world, a group of friends work to solve an exciting mystery surrounding the ghost’s unfinished business. While tackling the big mystery, the young heroes embark on six curious adventures with characters inspired by L. Frank Baum's story “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz”; author Pablo Cartaya's “¡Leo! El Magnífico”; Beverly Cleary's novel “The Mouse and the Motorcycle”; Mick Jagger and Keith Richard's song "She's A Rainbow"; E.B. White's book “Charlotte's Web”; and Jewell Parker Rhodes' tale “Bayou Magic.” The aim is to entertain while also promote a love of reading.
