Ghosts of Autumn Paperback
Former educator turned children's author releases the first in a book series combining history and ghost adventures for elementary and middle grade readers.
Third and fourth graders love adventures that are fun and exciting and spark the imagination. The key to this age group is to keep them engaged. That’s what Ghosts of Autumn aims to do.”
SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA, USA, March 1, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Amy Gorder is pleased to announce the release of her first book, Ghosts of Autumn. Ghosts of Autumn combines the history of the California Gold Rush with a thrilling mystery to delight and engage elementary and middle grade readers. The adventure begins when the city wants to turn a historic California Gold Rush site, The Elk Grove Hotel, into a golf course. Amelia and her friends sneak into the dilapidated building and discover an old poetry book that leads them to the unknown. — Amy Gorder, Author of Ghosts of Autumn
Gorder found it challenging to find books that captured the imaginations of 3rd and 4th graders when she worked as an educator. Now retired, she wrote Ghosts of Autumn with this under-served age group in mind. Gorder believes reading is fundamental to children’s self-esteem and serves as the foundation for their educational success.
“Third and fourth graders love adventures that are fun and exciting and spark the imagination. They enjoy a story that's a little scary but not too intense that gives them a chance to read independently. The key to this age group is to keep them engaged. That’s what Ghosts of Autumn aims to do.” ~ Amy Gorder, Author of Ghosts of Autumn
