Twelve-year-old Paris Pan has moved to a small town where she has a real shot at making friends. But that friendship comes at a price. She must take The Dare, something that caused a girl to disappear on the very property she now resides. To make matters worse, Paris must play basketball against her will, eradicate a crush on the least desirable boy in 7th grade, and cope with a family crisis that was possibly caused by a chili dog.
A humorous, suspenseful middle-grade fiction novel featuring a tween girl who is caught up in a "ghostly" mystery in a small town while navigating sticky situations at school and at home
Great for children ages 9-12 who have grown out of chapter books and are looking for engrossing, fast-paced reading that also happens to be funny
Popular with both upper elementary and middle school girls and boys (4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th graders)
Addresses social issues from peer pressure, bullying, empathy, friendship, and more
Makes a wonderful gift or birthday present for anyone looking for a spooky story featuring a spunky female protagonist
