Reach for this book if your child feels like an outsider or struggles with being misunderstood by peers and family. Norman Babcock has a secret: he can talk to ghosts, but his family thinks he is just being odd. This early reader follows Norman as he navigates a world that labels him as weird, while he finds comfort in the spirits of the departed and a fellow outcast named Neil. It is a story about the bravery required to be yourself when the world wants you to fit in. The book balances spooky elements with a deep sense of empathy and humor. While it involves ghosts and a town curse, the heart of the narrative is about the importance of staying true to your identity even when you are scared. It is an excellent choice for children ages 6 to 9 who enjoy slightly edgy, supernatural stories but still need a grounded, hopeful message about belonging and family acceptance.
