I don't think this would be interesting or challenging enough for a middle-grader. It was OK, but the language, tone, and pace were very basic.

A light-hearted mystery reminiscent of The Lost Library. Rami is the only one who can see Blue, the ghost of a young girl who looks eerily similar to the subject of the stolen painting. He teams up with Veda to discover the thief and the two end up on an adventure that will have long-lasting effects on their community. A fun almost-ghost story about the beauty of friendship and the universal need to be accepted as we are.
A light mystery. I wish Agatha, the turtle, had a bit more character. I wasn‘t fond of the narrative voice. Everything felt a bit rushed and the characters weren‘t fully developed. Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for an advance copy.
