This is a great children’s novel. It’s fast paced and full of big plot points, but also heartfelt and empathetic. Perfect for any child from around 8 on up.

4.5

What a great read! I listened to the audiobook and was thoroughly entertained by the reader. A powerful story about a boy who has experienced trauma trying to cope with that (and childhood in general) and come out stronger. I related to Ghost’s experience with bullying. I loved the character of Coach. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.
