A Strange Thing Happened in Cherry Hall

ebook

From the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of A Rover's Story and Other Words for Home comes an extraordinary story about two friends, a ghost, a missing painting, and a turtle named Agatha. The perfect next read for fans of The Swifts, Kate DiCamillo, and Erin Entrada Kelly.

A painting has been stolen...!

When Rami sees a floating girl in the museum, he knows he has seen her somewhere before. Then he realizes: She looks just like the girl in the painting that has gone missing. But how does her appearance connect to the theft?

Agatha the turtle knows—she has been watching from the garden. But she can't exactly tell anyone...can she?

Will Rami, with the help of his classmate, Veda, be able to solve the mystery? The clues are all around them, but they'll have to be brave enough to really look.

This is a whimsical, moving story about the universal desire to be seen and understood and how art can help us find connection, even when we are at our loneliest.


What happens when the only witnesses are a boy nobody notices and a turtle who can't talk?


  • A Paranormal Mystery: Rami is the only one who can see Blue, the mysterious floating girl who looks exactly like the one in the stolen painting. Is she a clue, a ghost, or something else entirely?
  • Kid Detectives: Loner Rami teams up with outspoken Veda to investigate a crime that has stumped the grown-ups.
  • An Unlikely Friendship: A heartfelt story about two kids who feel invisible finding the courage to be seen—together.
  • A Secret-Keeping Turtle: The key to the whole case might just be Agatha, a garden turtle who saw everything but can't say a word.
