Content: G (some scares)
BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Zee and her older sister, Abby, had been keeping it together since their father took on a long haul trucking job upstate, but it’s been a while since he came home. And now the queen mean girl at school, Nellie, has ramped up her verbal bullying and gets Zee suspended when she can’t take it any more. Then a huge storm kicks up and a new principal rolls in – Principal Scratch. Zee immediately dislikes him, but no one else in the whole town will listen to her warnings – except her best frirnd, Elijah, and evil Nellie. They will have to defeat Scratch on their own.
While definitely dark in places, Ghost Girl reminds me of a really good Buffy episode. Your readers who love ghost stories will embrace it.
