“Readers who identify with feeling a little out of place in school or life will be begging to learn when the adventure continues… Spooky and fun, with substance as well.”
Readers who identify with feeling a little out of place in school or life will be begging to learn when the adventure continues… Spooky and fun, with substance as well. * Kirkus Reviews *
