Snyder, Zilpha Keatley._The ghosts of Rathburn
Park._Delacorte, 2002 [0-385-90064-3]
Matt and his family move to a new town. Near the park, deep
in the woods is the old town, burnt down. All that is left
is the old mansion called "The Palace" by the local
residents. Just the last of the Rathburn family lives
there, an elderly lady. One day Matt wanders into the
woods and meets a young girl dressed in old clothes. Could
she be a ghost? She has the same name as the elderly lady
in the house. What about that dog that keeps appearing out
of nowhere? In this 182 page book, not only does the reader
deal with the possibility of ghosts, but also tension in the
family with Matt's brother and sister. A good read.
