(4) K-3 Is there a ghost harassing Jonathan or has he created an imaginary specter to shift attention away from his show-offy younger sister? A favorite uncle resolves the family tensions with understated sensitivity, but readers may be left scratching their heads in bewilderment. Inviting color photographs and the sequence of simple first-person narratives feature an African-American family and their (maybe) haunted home.
Reviewer: Tamara DePasquale
