This book is the group read for Middle Grade March 2022 and it did not disappoint. I've read few books set in the time of the American Civil War. I love the combination of the fantasy element of a ghost best friend, an adventure story, and a main character that faces personal adversity.
I loved the relationship between the main character and his father, the way his best friend looked after him, and the characters he met along the way. The story ended up taking a sharp right turn at the climax, which I wasn't expecting but I wasn't disappointed.
By the time I put this book down, I had cried three times! You know a middle grade book is great if it makes you cry.
