I can't wait for...
One for Sorrow by Mary Downing Hahn
Expected Publication: July 18, 2017
by Clarion Books
Goodreads
Synopsis:
Against the ominous backdrop of the influenza epidemic of 1918, Annie, a new girl at school, is claimed as a best friend by Elsie, a classmate who is a tattletale, a liar, and a thief. Soon Annie makes other friends and finds herself joining them in teasing and tormenting Elsie. Elsie dies from influenza, but then she returns to reclaim Annie's friendship and punish all the girls who bullied her. Young readers who revel in the spooky stories will relish this chilling tale of a girl haunted by a vengeful ghost.
Why I Can't Wait To Read This:
I've been reading Mary Downing Hahn's ghost stories since elementary school. They've been some of my favorite children's books and ones I keep collecting for my shelves so of course I would love this one as well. I also love historical fiction.
