Dying to Meet You: 43 Old Cemetery Road, Book 1

156 pp. | Harcourt | April, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-15-205727-5 $15.00
(2) 4-6 43 Old Cemetery Road series. Illustrated by M. Sarah Klise. Olive C. Spence, the ghost of a never-published children's writer, encounters Ignatius B. Grumply, a (live) children's author experiencing writer's block. Together they write a ghost story, illustrated by eleven-year-old Seymour Hope. The fun here is in the narrative equipment--letters, e-mails, newspaper extracts, cast list--and embedded jokes. Mock-gothic fans will be eager to revisit 43 Old Cemetery Road in the anticipated sequels.
