2002, Andy Griffiths, Just Disgusting!, page 102:‘Of course not, you drop kick,’ says Jen. “Ectoplasmic” means “like a ghost”. An ectoplasmic elephant would be invisible. So how could you see one anyway?’
2003, David Metzenthen, Boys of Blood & Bone, unnumbered page:‘ […] I′m its godfather. Darce, too, although he doesn′t know it yet, but he will when he gets back, the bludger. Geez, I hope the kid has your brown eyes, Lanse.’
