Fun Adventure, Well Written & Learned a lot too.
The was a fun middle-grade ghostly adventure in the Virgin Islands, a journey of friendship. It reminded me of my own care free days of childhood. It is well written with deep characters and life lessons we all go through. The best thing is gives a lot of historical information about St. John's and it is just a great FUN read. It even touches on some serious issues. This book is well worth read.
