Book Description
I was driving down a nearly deserted road. It was a shortcut I often took to get home from town. I’m not sure it was any shorter, but it was definitely quieter. A lot fewer cars came this way. Perhaps it was because most of the houses weren’t out this direction. Maybe it was even because of the cemetery. I actually liked going by the cemetery. This was one of those older ones that had character, not just a bunch of the same plaques over and over. Some of these graves had statues of angels watching over them. Some had boxes above ground. There were even two mausoleums, on in the corner near a front gate, and one way back in the far corner. I was glancing at the graveyard when it happened. I’m not sure if I hit a slick bit of mud, some oil on the road, or what. It might have been that there was just way too much rain for my tires to get a good grip. Anyway, I felt the steering wheel being wrenched from my hands. Find out what happens when Peter’s car ends up in the ditch beside the cemetery. Ages 9 and up. Educational Versions have exercises designed to meet Common Core standards. LearningIsland.com believes in the value of children practicing reading for 15 minutes every day. Our 15-Minute Books give children lots of fun, exciting choices to read, from classic stories, to mysteries, to books of knowledge. Open the world of reading to a child by having them read for 15 minutes a day.

Book Description
“I’m sorry if I’m such a pain,” Mr. Sidney said as I adjusted his pillows with a sigh. “Oh! It’s not you, I promise,” Janet exclaimed. “I just have some things on my mind.” “They don’t seem to be happy things,” Mr. Sidney noted with a wheeze. “Is it all this taking care of dying folks that has you upset? Or is it something else? I have a hard time talking, but I can be a great listener if you want to talk about it?” Janet smiled. Mr. Sidney had always been one of the kindest men she cared for in the old age home where she worked. It was hard to believe that this weathered whisper of a man used to be a great muscled boxer in his day. He often spoke of how he was going to get back all those muscles when he got to heaven. He believed your spirit would look like your body did when you were in your prime! “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you,” Janet exclaimed with a sigh. Find out what Janet’s problem is, and how Mr. Sidney tries to help in this creepy ghost story. Ages 9 and up. Educational Versions have exercises designed to meet Common Core standards.
