What do You think about Eglantine (2007)?
Audiobook. It's a very short story, listened to while I was road tripping. It spends a lot of time working through possible real world explanations, which honestly I find tedious. This book isn't too bad about it, but it annoys me in books where they are obviously going to find out that it's really paranormal. Just don't bother, you know? If you're going to Scooby-Doo it, and it really is the guy who runs the theme park wearing a scary mask, then it's totally worthwhile. Otherwise you're just chewing up pages of book unnecessarily to come to a tediously obvious conclusion that none of it worked.Anyway, this is set in Australia which is a nice change of pace for most books I read, and has actually sensible advice for what to do in a ghost haunting. And the ghost isn't a scary one, and the logic keeping a lid on things makes it seem like fun to imagine a ghost in your house. Not a bad kids book.I remember really enjoying her Pagan series although not enough about them to give them star ratings, I must have been a teenager. If I ever get a chance to re-read them I'll add them to my read list. This didn't hit any of my buttons the way that did but I can see it being some grade 3 reader's favourite book for a year.
