Juneberry Blue

By Candice Ransom

Book Overview

Part gentle mystery, part ghostly fairy tale, this contemporary novel celebrates small towns, cozy storytelling, and one very determined ghost cat.

Eleven-year-old Andie Jennings, of Morning Glory, Virginia (population: 8), is set to inherit her family's magic on Midsummer's Eve. And Andie plans to use it to bring her dad home for good from his long-haul trucking job. Except her gift doesn't come.

But when a see-through cat starts following her, Andie realizes she didn't fail to get her magic at all. Her gift just isn't what anyone expected. Turns out, her new ability to communicate with ghosts may help her solve a mystery in Morning Glory and finally bring about some much-needed change--for the town and for her family.

Inspired by the tradition of tales passed down through generations, Juneberry Blue celebrates the importance of listening to stories--and the people who tell them.
