Wonderfully Intriguing
I first checked out this book from the library thinking, "Eh. Just something for reading points." Well, let me tell you something. I WAS WRONG!!! This book is about to 6th graders who try to find the missing Vermeer painting, A Lady Writing. The story takes you through ...

Blue Balliett

Down East Books, 1984

Best of its kind
This is the best true accounts ghost story book I have ever read and I have been reading them since I was ten( I'm now 50). I don't know what universe Blue Ballitt wandered into when she was writing this but it has a real ring of authenticity to it and the stories are ...

Nantucket Ghosts
Blue Balliett

Down East Books, 2006

One of the best ghost story compilations. Period.

Calder Game
Blue Balliett

Scholastic Press, 2008

A Win all the Way
