(2) 4-6 Illustrated by James K. Hindle. Josie and her brother Fox get spooked when a dusty Polaroid camera starts doing more than taking pictures: without explanation (or film), the ghostlike figure of an elderly man appears in every shot, then manifests itself as a specter. Hindle's cartoonish illustrations seem bland, but thoroughly creepy motifs make for a good scare, and Josie's wry observations and sensitive voice keep it real.
