INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Guterson, Ben

Winterhouse

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Chloe Bristol. Spending Christmas away from her dour aunt and uncle at a Catskills-style grand hotel, eleven-year-old Elizabeth makes a new friend, Freddy, who is a fellow puzzle fanatic. But Elizabeth and Freddy's puzzle-solving attempts uncover a mystery that may threaten the entire hotel. Word ladders and codes abound in this magic-tinged winter holiday mind-boggler, which ends with a possible new family for Elizabeth.
