<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Ellie Charles ghosted her best friend--and her actions come back to haunt her. A heartwarming and funny middle-grade story of redemption from Leslie Margolis.</b> <p/>Thirteen-year-old Ellie Charles has everything going for her: she's the smartest, prettiest, best-dressed, and most popular kid at Lincoln Heights Middle School. She's also the meanest, by design. Ellie's got sharp edges, which she uses to keep herself at the top of the social food chain. <p/>But one night, hours before her school's winter dance, a frightening accident leads her to encounter a ghost who just might change everything. This ghost, of a girl dressed all in black, makes Ellie visit her own past, present, and future--reliving her parents' divorce, her struggles in school, and worst of all, her massive falling-out with her best friend, Marley. Can what Ellie sees inspire her to change her ways? And is a new perspective enough to save her life?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This portrait of a bully and how she got that way has as much understanding to offer the reader as it does for Ellie herself." --<i>The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books</i> <p/>"An interesting take on a classic narrative. . .The ending is well earned and satisfying." --<i>School Library Journal</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Leslie Margolis </b>is the author of many books for young readers, including <i>We Are Party People</i>, <i>If I Were You</i>, the Maggie Brooklyn Mysteries, and the Annabelle Unleashed series.
