Customer Reviews

Wow!

I bought this book based on the cover alone and I'm glad I bought it. The story is not only well written, but so spooky too! I literally got shivers reading it!! What a fantastic read!

A GREAT BOOK

again another great book i read as a child and have so since bought for my daughter....a great read for kids!!!!

scary and awesome

The book Christina's Ghost is about a girl that goes with her uncle to a little house in the woods. She meets a ghost boy who only comes around when she laughs so she reads a riddle book. When she gets close to the end, something in the attic starts coming down stairs. My favorite part was when she was with her sister because I feel the same way when I'm with my sister. I recommend this book to people who like mystery and scary stories. It is scary at one part and it makes you want to look for the second book. By: Nicole

I love this book. I first heard it when I was in forth grade. My teacher had read it to us and I fell in love with it. I've read Christina's Ghost over 5 times. Even now as I get older I read it to my younger siblings. I'm not much into reading either and when I find a book I like you know it is good. This book will send you chills, but in a good way it is full of excitment and adventure. Read at leat once and I know you'll love it.

AWESOME

I think this book is excellent! You feel as though you are right there in the story. I reccomend this to anyone who needs a book to read on a rainy day. I also reccomend Betty Ren Wright's other books too

I read this book a thousand times it's so interesting!

This book by Betty Ren Wright is marvelous. Everytime I read it I gasp at how interesting it is. It's about two girls who's parents went on a business trip to Alaska and planned to leave their kids at their grandmother's house, but their grandmother had a blatter attack and couldn't keep them. So Christina ends up going to her crabby Uncle Ralphs friend's cottage to work on his work. Christina's parents call throughout the story adn tell her to stay out of her uncles way and find something constructive to do. Christinna and her uncle end up solving a mystery that happened thirty years ago. The ghost in the attic does not want them to find his stamps that he stole thirty years ago so he warns them everytime they get close. I shouldn't tell you too much so you know all about it so go get this book from your local library and curl up with it anytime or anywhere.
