Summary: Jade Green
Comment: Jade Green, written by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor, is a story about Judith Sparrow, who is forced to live with her Uncle Geoffrey in South Carolina. Judith disobeys the only rule that her uncle has enforced-nothing green is allowed in the house.
Judith Sparrow is the main character in this intriguing ghost story, and I am most fond of her because she is cautious, kind, and very genial. I dislike Judith's cousin, Charles because he always intrudes where he isn't welcome. The message of this story is that you shouldn't let other peoples' beliefs persuade your own. The ending event is the part (read the book if you want to know why!). I didn't like how Judith discovers the spirit of Jade Green, because it is very unoriginal, but overall, I was very satisfied with the book.
The author has a very nice and interesting style. The book is well written and easy to read with hardly any large words. The descriptions of Judith's environment make you feel like you are there. I think this book would be most appreciated by children ages nine to age twelve, but I would recommend the book to all readers because it is exciting and has a great message. I would rate this book with four stars because it is very likeable.
I urge everyone to read Jade Green and I can guarantee that you that you will enjoy it and you will probably read it in one sitting.

Comment: Both of young teenage Judith Sparrow's parents are dead, her mother locked in a madhouse. Leaving orphan Judith no where to go until her wealthy Uncle Geoffry adopts her into his home full of ghostly secrets. The only condition was that Judith bring nothing green into the house. However she couldn't bare leaving her most prized possion, her mother's picture surrounded by a green silk frame, with her.
After disobeying her Uncle's one rule, Judith quickly learns what a big mistake that was when scary, unexplainable things begin to happen. Judith soon realizes that she is being followed by the ghost of Jade Green, a girl her age who took her own life. She sees heart-stopping ghostly sights and is too scared to sleep at night for she never knows if the ghost of Jade Green is powerful enough to take Judith's life or drive her insane..
This story is truly a spine-tingler, I read it all in one night and was constantly looking over my shoulder the whole time. Definatly an amazing book and also down right scary! A must read!
