Dying to Meet You: 43 Old Cemetery Road, Bk1 (Paperback)

Sisters Kate and M. Sarah Klise (creators of the Regarding the . . . series) launched their lively 43 Old Cemetery Road series in 2009 with" Dying to Meet You," the story of the churlish, child-hating sixty-year-old children's book author Ignatius B. Grumply, who rents an old Victorian mansion in Ghastly, Illinois, for the summer . . . only to find it already inhabited. Enter eleven-year-old Seymour Hope and the vivacious, "old as dirt" writer-ghost Olive C. Spence. The ensuing tale of unlikely roommates is cleverly, seamlessly told in letters, newspaper articles, Grumply's work-in-progress "Ghost Tamer" manuscript, and winning illustrations by M. Sarah Klise. Alternately poignant and side-splittingly funny--and full of writing and publishing jokes--this charming title was nominated for nine state book awards and named a Junior Library Guild selection.Don't miss the next books in the series, including "Over My Dead Body" (Book 2) and "Till Death Do Us Bark" (Book 3).
