Young author Shreshtha Sawant is back with The Ghost Maid Book 2: Papa’s Home!, a delightful continuation filled with humour, imagination, family warmth, and supernatural mischief.
The story follows eight-year-old Shreshtha, whose unusual household secret began when she prayed for help for her hardworking Maa. Her wish brought Khushi, a cheerful invisible ghost maid from 1902, who quietly transformed their home with spotless cleaning and delicious cooking. Since only Shreshtha can see Khushi, Maa happily believes that life at home has somehow become wonderfully peaceful.
But everything changes when Papa returns from a long business trip in Mumbai for a seven-day holiday. With his sharp engineer’s eye, curious nature, and powerful “Papa radar,” he begins noticing strange happenings around the house. Khushi’s carefully hidden routine quickly descends into hilarious chaos.
From clattering mops and shattered plates to re-washed laundry, an upside-down wardrobe, and an unbearably spicy pot of dal, every incident brings Papa closer to discovering the truth. Meanwhile, Shreshtha invents increasingly ridiculous excuses to protect Khushi’s secret.
Papa’s Home! promises young readers a charming, funny, and imaginative family adventure where keeping a ghost hidden may be the hardest household chore of all.
