Fantastic Fiction

Kimmel, E. C.. (1998). In the Stone Circle. U.S.A.:Scholastic.

This novel is part ghost story and part historical novel.  The main character Cristyn  experiences unexplained episodes while staying in a very old home in Wales.  Cristyn even sees a ghost who looks a lot like her mother who died when Cristyn was 3.  This novel covers the supernatural as well as day to day life within a family.  I would recommend this book to students who are struggling through divorce or just having a hard time getting along with their family.  Overall a good book that is interesting and a quick read.  Age group 5th through 8th grade.  Book is geared more toward girls than boys.
