Rowley Peters and the Lumberjack Ghost
A campground full of ghosts?
When Rowley Peters goes camping with her family at Black Hawk State Park, she learns it’s the
site of mummy excavations, ghostly frog behavior, and the legendary lumberjack ghost Chicken
McGee. Rowley never liked camping, but when her best friend, Huey, and her family join
them she’s stuck facing these spooky creatures.
With frogs to follow, copper antiquities to learn about, and Chicken McGee’s axe to dodge, Rowley and Huey realize there’s something more dangerous at the campground than ghosts. Unfortunately, following the clues leads them in different temper-flaring directions.
Solving the mystery of Chicken McGee might just be the only way to save their friendship.

This book is beautifully written. Rowley is a delightful and well-developed character who captivates me from the beginning. Her intense dislike of camping is vividly portrayed, making her struggles feel genuine. When Rowley and Huey discover something more dangerous than ghosts at the campground, the mystery takes an exciting turn. I found myself rooting for Rowley as she tried to solve the mystery and address the problem bothering her. This is a compelling and engaging read that I highly recommend.

I love that Rowley is a hero and a scaredy cat at the same time! Her dislike of discomfort is refreshingly relatable. It was fun to read a story where the hero wasn’t almost superhuman. Her physical and emotional struggles had me on her team from the beginning. Fun and fresh!

Rowley is so relatable. Don’t we all have fears, talents, and curiosity? I love how an unbelievable lumberjack ghost turns into a believable mystery. The friendship issues and bullying are great subplots. The story moves quickly to a surprise ending.
