We’re launching our third Flashback Summer with one of Kait’s most formative childhood books. Author Becky Allen (@allreb) joined us to discuss The Ghost in the Third Row by Bruce Coville, a middle-grade mystery that’s aged surprisingly well, much like a slightly haunted historic theater. Join us for a tween theatrical drama with a higher body count and more satisfying emotional resolution than the Phantom of the Opera!
Readers advisory: Here.
Footnotes: Ten Books that Terrified Us As Kids (But We Read Them Anyway)
Candy Pairing: Becky says Choward’s violet mints, Kait says yogurt covered raisins, Renata says Dots.
Coming up next: Ramona and her Mother by Beverly Cleary.
