Scritch Scratch by Lindsay Currie


 


Scriiiiiitch Scraaaaatch...... 

Claire is a scientist, but her dad is a paranormal expert.  He has started his own ghost tour in Chicago and Claire has to end up helping him when the normal person can't.  She is mortified.  Claire is also dealing with her best friend, who seems to be making a new best friend.  As Claire finishes helping her dad with the tour she sees a little boy on the bus, but there were no kids on the tour.... The next thing you know weird things are happening:  marker writing on the wall, bathrooms flooding, broken picture frames.  Claire with the help of her brother Sam will have to find out what the ghost wants and Claire will have to learn to not judge people based on their first impression.  

Loved this for middle school.  Spooky factor, friendship struggles, has a crush on a boy, and just general middle school growing up struggles.  I also really loved learning about some Chicago history and things I didn't know.
