(2) YA Thirteen-year-old Spencer Honesty is the last kid in Paisley, Kansas. He takes pictures of the town's old haunts--and former residents start appearing in the photographs. This delicious premise--a ghost town coming back to life in dreams and photographs--is developed with an accretion of humorous situations and details. Readers will enjoy Jennings's quirky story of a town's unlikely savior.
