Publisher Description: Logan must face his fears and brave a ghostly encounter in this fourth book of a wholesome series that's like Little House on the Prairie for younger readers. Something is rustling in the bushes and making weird sounds down by the water. According to Logan's older brother, Drew, it's the Ghost of Juniper Creek. But Logan is determined to show no fear...at least not in front of his friends and family. So when Drew dares Logan and his friend Anthony to confront the spirit, the two boys bravely head to the creek where the ghost awaits... With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, the Tales from Maple Ridge chapter books are perfect for beginning readers. |
