When she arrives, she finds life in the small community of Buckle very different from Toronto--everyone knows everyone else, and some of them believe in ghosts and The Sight and family curses. Ruth's cousin Ruby is also staying for the summer, and the two discover they have a lot in common: they both lost their moms when they were two years old, they're the same age and they even like the same food. But while Ruby believes in spirits and fairies, Ruth believes in science and cold, hard facts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen they find ominous information on some tombstones in the local cemetery, Ruth and Ruby start investigating their family's past and discover that twin girls are born in every generation, and every set of twins dies young, leaving their children without mothers. What's more, one of the twins always has The Sight and can see the Ghost Road that leads to the mysterious lost settlement of Slippers Cove. What happened there? What does it have to do with their family? And who is the ghostly presence that keeps visiting Ruth late at night? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe answers lie somewhere along the Ghost Road . . . if they can only find it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charis Cotter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1101918896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781101918890\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tundra Books (NY)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/04\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 6.30w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.4\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e197750 \/ Ghost Road\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/15\/2018 pg. 97\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2018 pg. 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2018 - Recommended - Better Than Most\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews Fall Preview\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/15\/2018 pg. 51\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2019 - Recommended, Satisfactory","brand":"Charis Cotter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43988377567487,"sku":"9781101918890","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e544a5f-5adf-40f8-9270-012530323e58.jpg?v=1683294194","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-ghost-road-charis-cotter-9781101918890","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
