Ghost of Fossil Glen

This was an awesome book by Cynthia Defelice. Our class thought this was an exciting book and it was as if Allie was on a mission.We could picture the setting in our heads, since we live near Glen's very similar to that one in the book. We did not want to stop reading as we went along.We recommend this book to everyone because we liked it. Cynthia Defelice kept us in suspense.

Kelsey's Review

I loved "Ghost Of Fossil Glen" I give it 5 out of 5 stars because I like ghost stories and mysteries. If you like those things you will love "Ghost of Fossil Glen". The book is mainly about a 11 year old girl named Allie Nichols. A ghost is haunting her. Who is the ghost? What does it want? And why is it after Allie? Read the book to find out what happened.

A Fascinating Mystery for Middle Graders

My daughter received this book as a Christmas present from her 4th grade teacher (a nun). I have to admit that she knew it was a page-turner. I couldn't get my child to put it down! The parents who were offended by the subject matter should read this story again -- there's a lot for kids to learn about in this book, like friendship, trust, doing the right thing, and parental relationships. Plus, its a great story!

If you like ghost books you will love this one!!

My fifth grade teacher Ms. Williams is almost finished this book. It is great how Allie is so brave to face the killer of Lucy Stiles. Every day when we are out of time everyone asks (Just one more page?.) It is the best book she has read! THANKS MS. WILLIAMS.
