Story Summary:
When Trina and her father move into Goldenrod, an abandoned Victorian mansion, Trina hopes she will finally have a place to call home--and a chance to make friends at her new school. But school doesn’t go as planned and, and Goldenrod might be haunted.
Then Trina discovers Augustine, a tiny—and very unusual—porcelain
doll that belonged to the little girl who lived at Goldenrod a century ago.
With help from Augustine, Trina realizes Goldenrod is trying to tell her an
important secret, one that may just change her life.
The Secret of Goldenrod will be released on October 1, 2016 through CarolRhonda Books, a division of Lerner Publishing.

Of course I remember you! And fifth grade is the perfect age for this book. Keep in mind that I'd love to pay your class a visit.

DeleteOctober cannot come soon enough. I've already pre-ordered my copy. Your voice really stood out at Hamline student readings. Anticipating a beautifully written story with lots of heart.
