![]() ![]() The characters are what make this tale shine. The four pod-mates at school are nothing alike but come together to bring understanding to each other. Each have their own problems which adds to the theme of friendship building throughout the story. But once Henry arrives Barbara Anne seems to have found her forever friend.Īlso in the fray is Zack and Renee. She has a tendency to take over situations, which doesn’t attract too many followers. ![]() ![]() My Take: Barbara Anne narrates the story and she’s a spunky, insightful, and often hilarious girl. Together, they might just help Edgar find what he needs to finally be at peace. For curious Barbara Anne, Henry’s also a riddle–a boy who sits alone at recess sketching in a mysterious notebook, a boy, she soon learns, who’s being haunted by a ghost named Edgar.With the help of some new friends, this unlikely duo is off on an adventure to discover who Edgar was while alive and why he’s haunting Henry now. When Henry Davis moves into the neighborhood, Barbara Anne and her classmates at Washington Carver Elementary don’t know what to make of him. Ghosts only haunt when they’ve left something behind… I have an enticing choice with THE HAUNTING OF HENRY DAVIS by Kathryn Siebel. It’s another MARVELOUS MIDDLE GRADE MONDAY. ![]()
