The Ghost in Me
language
(Essemkay Company Productions Dec. 18, 2010)
A book where FREAKY FRIDAY and GHOST ADVENTURES meet!
Like any other fourteen-year-old, Myri Monaco has problems that she doesn't know how to deal with: a crush on her best friend's boyfriend, a mother who's dating her science teacher, and a "punishment" for a science project that lands her in auditions for the school play (the last place she wants to be). But most girls don't have a friendly ghost living at home who is willing to trade places whenever she is needed. Will temporary body-swapping be an easy solution when problems collide? Or will Myri lose everything to a ghost wanting to live again?
