(3) 4-6 During the summer of 1951, Paolo sees a ghostly boy in a neighbor's attic window, and he, his little brother, and his deaf cousin investigate. They have another mystery to solve when Paolo's dog is kidnapped, and what's more, Theresa, Paolo's "non-girlfriend," spends too much time hanging around him. Paolo's narrative voice is fresh and authentic.
