GIVING UP THE GHOST (Peachtree), Sheri Sinykin's new 'tween novel, breaks a nine-year writer's block, during which time she earned her MFA in Writing for Children from Vermont College.
Set on a haunted plantation near New Orleans two years after Hurricane Katrina, GIVING UP THE GHOST's themes of fear, grief, and forgiveness--leavened with humor and gripped by a ghostly mystery--offer comfort and healing to young teens living with uncertainty in unsettling times.
This suspense novel for readers ages 10-14 is also of special interest to grief counselors, teachers, librarians, and parents concerned for how children handle their fears about terminal illness and the eventual death of loved ones.
Sheri Sinykin was lead author of the Magic Attic Club series in the mid-90s, and published nine other books for young readers. She lives in Wisconsin and in Arizona.
