Ghosts Come Rising is Available Now!
A 2023 Children’s Book Council Children’s Favorites and Teacher’s Favorites winner!
In the early 20th century, a religious movement called Spiritualism spread across America. Spiritualists believe that the living could communicate with the dead. Complete with ghostly black-and-white photographs, this suspenseful book tells the story of twelve-year-old Liza Carroll and her little brother as they try to find answers and hide a secret while staying at a spooky Spiritualist commune.
“I loved it!“
—Erin Entrada Kelly, Newbery Medal Winner for Hello, Universe
“So much more than a ghost story! Adam Perry’s Ghosts Come Rising is a beautifully crafted historical novel about the lengths human hearts will go to in coming to terms with loss, and the ways love continues, even from the other side of the thin place between life and death.”
—Kate Albus, author of A Place to Hang the Moon
