Reach for this book when your child feels like an outsider or is struggling to maintain their own identity within a high-pressure friendship. While it features a spooky mystery involving a ghost who was a medium, the heart of the story is about Kat navigating the complexities of being the less famous friend to a talented musician. It speaks to the emotional need for self-confidence and the courage required to set boundaries with those we love. Appropriate for ages 8 to 12, this story offers a safe way to explore themes of grief and letting go, packaged as a page-turning mountain house mystery. It is a wonderful choice for kids who feel they have a secret or a gift that makes them different and need to see that difference as a strength.
