Rowley Peters and the Lumberjack Ghost

by Carol L. Paur, Michael Genova (Artist)

Overview

This zany lower middle grade mystery is akin to Scooby Doo, where the ‘ghost’ just needs to be unmasked. Rowley’s cleft lip and palate give her a unique perspective on how to stand up for herself.

A campground full of ghosts? When Rowley Peters goes camping with her family at Black Hawk State Park, she learns it's the site of mummy excavations, ghostly frog behavior, and the legendary lumberjack ghost Chicken McGee. Rowley never liked camping, but when her best friend, Huey, and her family join them she's stuck facing these spooky creatures.

With frogs to follow, copper antiquities to learn about, and Chicken McGee's axe to dodge, Rowley and Huey realize there's something more dangerous at the campground than ghosts. Unfortunately, following the clues leads them in different temper-flaring directions. Solving the mystery of Chicken McGee might just be the only way to save their friendship.

About the Author

Carol L. Paur was born with a cleft palate. That meant surgeries and speech therapy. Because of this, she thought she'd become a doctor. However, she spent more time writing than working on her math.

She lives in Wisconsin.
