The Poltergoose is the first book in the Jiggy McCue children's series by Michael Lawrence. It is about a vicious ghost goose who haunts Jiggy after its farm becomes part of a new estate where Jiggy lives. Jiggy is naturally blamed for all the destruction, at home and school, caused by the poltergoose. He and his friends, Angela and Pete, find out how to rid themselves of the goose, but it involves breaking into the new shopping mall, which is riddled with security cameras.
