Ghosts, Toast, and Other Hazards - Susan Tan

\nSusan Tan's writing is funny, fun, and hits straight to the heart.--Christina Soontorvat, two-time Newbery Honor recipient \n \nFrom APALA Honor award-winning author Susan Tan, a middle-grade novel about a girl who must overcome her worries to find the truth behind her town's urban legend. \n \nMoving to a new town is never easy, but it's even harder when you're dealing with a stepdad who just left and a mom who can't get out of bed long enough to find a new job. But Mo doesn't have time to dwell on these things. \n \nBecause it's her job to keep her family together. To keep them safe. \n \nSo when an elephant starts to haunt her dreams--and a mysterious spirit attacks her home--Mo knows it's up to her to intervene before things get too dangerous. \n \nWith her new friend, Nathaniel, she embarks on an investigation, searching for the truth about the town, its people, and their history. But things are much more complicated and tangled than she thought. \n \nTo find out what's really going on, Mo might have to live a little dangerously after all.\n
