Join us on Sunday, Oct. 5, at 12 p.m., when Louise Simone discusses and signs copies of her award-winning book–Charlotte’s Ghosts–at the Village Center. While the book is for all ages, it will particularly appeal to those from 9- to 13- years-old. Charlotte’s Ghosts tells the story of C.C. Cross, a seventh grader who is struggling with the death of her father in Afghanistan. While running on a Civil War battlefield near her home, she encounters a boy who disappears before her eyes. In her search to discover who he is and how she can help him, she learns of the enduring bonds of love, even after a loved one is gone. Copies of Charlotte’s Ghosts will be available for purchase.
