About The Author

BETTY REN WRIGHT (1927-2013) was the distinguished author of many award-winning books for young readers, including Christina's Ghost. In addition to her middle-grade mysteries, Wright also penned more than thirty-five picture books for children, including The Blizzard, which appeared on state award master lists and was a Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year. In 2006 she was honored as a Notable Wisconsin Children's Author by the Wisconsin Library Association.

"The quintessential ghost story…The story is so vivid that even now, years later, I can close my eyes and see the dolls moving in the dollhouse at night, restaging the murder of Amy's grandparents. Although this book may be aimed at middle-school readers, its sneaky, creepy power is sure to appeal to teens, too." —School Library Journal
