Product Description:
Spencer thought the house might be haunted.
Mitch knew it wasn't. And he knew why.

My knowledge of Kevin Henkes, the author, never extended outside of his picture books (and what picture books they are!).

This is a great story about two boys who come together one summer at the lake. Both are dealing with tragedies that have occured in their lives. Spencer is trying to figure out about the death of his brother that occured when he was little and why noone talks about it. Mitch is dealing with the recent seperation of his parents. A great look at how they handle the situations and how they spend time together. Would highly recmmend this book.
