This is a high interest book for middle readers. A Ghost/Mystery story. Students will want to read on their own or listen to a read aloud in class. *SPOILERS* New kid Robbie moves to the city of Twilight and quickly finds out the Old Orphanage down the road is haunted by a young girl in a white dress. Rumor has it that if you happen to see the girl in the white dress, you will die the next day...

A great way to get students interested in reading.
