"Georgie the gentle ghost goes along, as do Herman the cat and Miss Oliver the owl, when Mr. and Mrs. Whittaker rent a beach house for the holidays. There a noisy old ghost of a sea captain, lamenting because he has never earned a medal, disturbs their sleep until Georgie calls upon his vocal powers to guide the boating Whittakers home on a foggy night. Georgie gives his fellow ghost a medal for the rescue, and after that ""Captain Hooper haunted so gently and Georgie was so proud of him, he just had to give him another medal. Thank goodness!"" For those who like their spooks subdued." -Kirkus Review
Fortunately for the Whittakers and the noisy ghost in the beach cottage they rent for the summer, their personal quiet ghost Georgie comes along on the vacation. No library descriptions found.

The fifth Georgie book I have read, Georgie and the Noisy Ghost continues to cement my belief that this is a series I would have greatly enjoyed as a young girl! In fact, the story and illustrations - just as charming, in their old-fashioned way, as ever! - felt quite familiar in this one, making me wonder whether I had indeed encountered this gentle little ghost before, but forgotten it, somehow. In any case, this was another delightful tale, complete with happy ending, of the sweet New England spook and his friends! ( )
