GHOST WEAVE is the story of three ghosts, or rather the story of one ghost told three different ways. After you read GHOST WEAVE, follow the scissor marks to cut the poem so that it hangs in three strips. To read WEAVE 1, cut horizontally along the scissor marks and weave the strips into the original poem, leaving the blank squares underneath the original GHOST WEAVE text, replacing the text of the original poem with new text. After reading WEAVE 1 remove the strips. To read WEAVE 2, cut horizontally along the scissor marks and weave the strips the same way into the original poem.
