Ghost Boy of Mackenzie House (2012)
“She tried not to remember doing the same job with her mom every Saturday morning and had to stop herself a couple of times from looking over her shoulder, half-expecting Sophie to be standing there watching her with a big smile on her face.
Her new room was a lot bigger than her old one, the slanted roof making her feel like she was in a giant tent, like in a story. She understood then Aunt Larry’s reference to adventure. Being a world traveller, Aunt Larry must have stayed in places like t...his many times.
Once the bed was made, Chloe changed into her pajamas and switched on her favourite lamp before turning off the main light. The room was plunged into an odd half-darkness, the black pushing down against the little lamp.

The window to the right of her bed, the one facing the ocean, was open to let in the nice breeze.MoreLess
