Book Recommendation: Secrets in the Attic

Secrets in the Attic (Mysteries, Mischief & Marshmallows #2) by C.C. Warrens

Genre: Midgrade mystery

The Story: Two kids try to banish the “ghosts” from a neighbor’s attic.

Content Notes: Light violence (dealing with bullies) and questions raised (though addressed) about ghosts

Why I loved this book: This book has all the vibes of the old Boxcar Children series, which I adored as a kid. There’s a mystery without getting overly scary. There’s heart and humor and quirky characters. There are also some good discussions of hard topics (grief, friendship/marriage, ghosts) at age-appropriate levels.

Pair with Deuteronomy 22:1-4.

Ponder the value of doing the little thing in front of you.

Pray for ideas of how to help a neighbor.
