About the author

Hi! I write Children's, Tween, and Young Adult fantasy. My stories are light-hearted tales for the younger set (or ageless folk who remain young at heart *grin*). I love dragons and faeries and all things unexplained. I'm especially fond of Celtic & Native American tales. Faeries and Dragons and Thunderbirds, Oh My!

Hannah's family is moving to a new home where she makes a new friend, Lilah. Not everyone is as open-minded as Hannah and her family who recognize that their twelve-year old may have some psychic abilities. Hannah has to make a choice between keeping her new friend or letting her go.

This is a sweet ghost story, appropriate for children. It contains several good lesson points. I'm glad I picked this up and plan to share it with my ten year old granddaughter.

I'm an adult but my younger self would have loved this book. My grownup self loved it too. Cute and heartwarming.

I thought this was a cute read. I think one for a much younger audience that what it seemed to be targeted towards or what I saw it targeted towards. It is clean enough for young readers (preteen). I saw a review where someone had compared it to a "light" version of Ghost Whisperer and I would agree with that.

Cute story about 12 year old Hannah and her best friend Lilah (who is a ghost). This is one of those feel good stories. While it's categorized as young adult, I think this would be suitable for grades 4 and up.

Very cute short story. A very good read for a pre-teen. About a little girl with an imaginary friend that turns out to be more
Than imaginary with a sweet ending.

Cute short story. Could have very easily been an episode of Ghost Whisperer.

I did not realize this book was only 25 pages. This was way too short. I would not even consider this a short story or novella. It was ok but it definitely need sustenance.
