Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
American history mixes with legend in four classic ghost tales for Step 4 early readers: a Cape Cod ghost horse that leads ships away from danger; a portrait that protests being moved within Virginia's Shirley Plantation museum; a Colorado miner who continued to look for love even after his bones were dumped down an outhouse ho≤ and a one-handed California sea captain whose ghost is still said to prowl Stinson Beach.
Step 4 Readers use challenging vocabulary and short paragraphs to tell exciting stories. For newly independent readers who read simple sentences with confidence.
Originally published under title: Spooky America : four real ghost stories, 2003.
Grades 2-3.
