Ollie Oxley and the Ghost

amazon barnes & noble Goodreads

Twelve-year-old Ollie Oxley is moving-again. His mom is starting another new job, this time at the Bingham Theater in Granite City, California. Moving all the time means Ollie has struggled in the making friends department, but he quickly connects with a boy named Teddy. To Ollie’s surprise, though, his first friend in town is a little more . . . unique than those he’s made in the past. Teddy is a ghost.

Hott Review:

I loved Ollie Oxley and the Ghost!!

Ollie Oxley and the Ghost is a great ghost story perfect for kids of all ages. It’s a fun mystery with a redemptive ending and terrific characters.

I wasn’t able to sit and read this in one sitting, but I found myself thinking about Ollie and his friends and wondering how they’d overcome their next sticky situation.

The only thing I didn’t like about Ollie Oxley and the Ghost was a few words I don’t feel are appropriate for my middle-grade and younger kids.

I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!!

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!
