Grandpere's Ghost Swamp - Hardcover
by Rachel M. Marsh (Author)
"A perfect recipe of humor, family connections, honoring the natural world, and a ghost with unfinished business." --Lynne Kelly, USA Today bestselling author of Song for a Whale
Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection
Ferris meets Ghosts of Tupelo Landing in this cozy ghost story about family, environmental activism, food, and friendship.
Basil Theriot has spent her entire life in New Orleans--in her family's famed Cajun restaurant in the French Quarter, really--but she's never been out to the bayou where her grandfather grew up. She's also never seen a ghost, even though dozens of ghost tours pass by the restaurant every day and her best friend Tommy is determined to be a ghost hunter.
But then Grandpere's ghost appears. And he has a mission for her.
Basil wouldn't mind being haunted if Grandpere could be helpful and share his secret recipe that might save the restaurant. But instead, he's intent on connecting Basil with her Cajun heritage. He sends her out to the bayou to meet his friends: an airboat captain, a shrimper, and a scientist rebuilding Louisiana's fast-disappearing coastline.
For fans of Gracie Under the Waves and A Strange Thing Happened in Cherry Hall, Grandpere's Ghost Swamp has a little bit of everything: a pinch of spookiness, a dash of environmental activism, and a heaping of family.
