The Ghost Who Didn't Believe In Humans
by Helena Chambers
Description
Bullying (with ghosts) - for 8-12 year-olds
When Della moves house and starts a new school, she knows that she must expect changes. However, she little imagines that she will stumble into the spirit world - where the inhabitants seem so much more fun than her hostile new schoolmates.
Della is taken to the limits of her strength and beyond as she faces the trials imposed by the class bully, who dominates the girls in her group and is determined to keep Della out. While the pressure mounts inexorably at school, life in the spirit-world also reaches a climax…
At one level, this is a cracking good ghost story that will engage the reader, of virtually any age, from beginning to end - but it also explores a social problem which is notoriously difficult to identify and root out.
