Book excerpt: As two brothers try to reunite the lonely ghosts of a farmer and a sheepdog, “readers will be cheering them on every step of the way” (Publishers Weekly). In this short-chapter winner of the IRA Children’s Choices, Peter and Martin enjoy living atop Popcorn Hill, except for two things: They long for a big dog and their cabin is haunted by a lonely ghost. They do get a frisky mutt named Rosie, but she’s not as big or as appealing as the stray sheepdog that has been roaming around outside. When the boys learn the sheepdog is a ghost, however, they devise a plan for bringing the two ghosts together. In the process, they learn to appreciate their real pet, Rosie.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rose, a friend for a very short time, had died as a result of cancer. No mystery there, but shortly afterwards Rose's only son, just 12 years old is killed in a terrible auto accident. Even before his death, there was talk of a 'spirit or ghost' appearing in Rose's house. Maree had failed in her efforts to contact this 'ghost' because family members were in denial. She put the file away and tried to forget it. After a call from another friend, she decided it was time to investigate again. Maree Price is not your regular physic in the general sense. Maree goes about her mystery solving much like 'Miss Marple' solves cases in Agatha Christie novels. She likes to remain in the background and contact these 'spirits' in her own unique way. She says then they 'just come to her and solve the mystery', she is only the human vessel. A wonderful paranormal mystery with character.

Book excerpt: Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for . . . “An adventure story with a hint of the supernatural . . . full of action and suspense” (School Library Journal). Most years Corby likes summer vacation, but not now. He’s stuck at his grandparents’ house in Wisconsin, where his grandfather constantly reminds him how timid he is and how different his father was at his age. And his new friend Buck seems to think he’s chicken, too, just because he’d rather be sensible than risk getting hurt. To prove he’s tough, Corby joins Buck for a nighttime journey into the woods to find the Wish Master, a fierce, giant statue that is rumored to grant wishes. Soon it seems as if the Wish Master does have special powers—though it doesn’t always get things exactly right. When Corby wishes for a puppy, a mangy stray comes into his life. He soon grows attached to the loyal mutt. Then the dog gets Corby in big trouble, and Corby decides it’s time to wish for what he really wants: to go home. But will this wish bring more harm than good?
