Suddenly Supernatural

School Spirit

By Kimmel, Elizabeth Cody

Publishers Summary:
In the tradition of the loveable but flawed heroines from Louise Rennison's Georgia Nicholson Books, Kathleen O'Dell's Agnes Parker novels, and Lois Lowry's Anastasia Krupnik books comes Elizabeth Cody Kimmel's Kat Roberts. All Kat wants is to be normal, or at least to look that way to students at her new school. But her mother is a medium, and not the kind that fits in between small and large; Kat's mom is the kind of medium who sees spirits and communicates with them. And, even worse, Kat has just discovered that she can see spirits too. In fact, she seems to be the only one capable of helping a spirit at her school cross over successfully. The question is can she do it without needing to switch schools herself? In this the first of three SUDDENLY SUPERNATURAL books, Elizabeth Cody Kimmel brings humor, heart, and a little supernatural charm to the trials and tribulations of finding out who you are and who you want to be--all while surviving the seventh grade.

Like most seventh graders, Kat longs to fit in, but with a mom who's a medium ("and I don't mean the kind that fits in between small and large") and Kat's own emerging "spirit sight," this proves to be a tall order. Fellow misfit Jac is new to Kat's school; she's a gifted cellist with debilitating performance anxiety, an overbearing stage mother, and no desire to kowtow to the popular kids. At first, the girls are just lu...Log In or Sign Up to Read More
