(2) 4-6 When Emmaline's mother dies suddenly, her father attempts to invent a machine that can bring her back. Neglected, Emmaline resents the "ghost machine"; then, with help from friends, twins Gully and Oliver, Emmaline discovers its secret: you can bring someone back, temporarily, by giving up a specific memory of them forever. Packed with emotion, the narrative offers a quiet approach to understanding different ways of grieving.
