Ferris
Kate DiCamillo
Eleven-year-old Emma Phineas Wilkey, known as Ferris, worries as her grandmother Charisse spends more time resting because of heart problems. Around her, family life is disorderly: Charisse communicates with a ghost, Uncle Ted is meant to be working on a painting, Pinky dreams of becoming an outlaw, and Ferris’s father is preoccupied with attic raccoons. Her friend Billy is a pianist determined to play “Mysterious Barricades.” Ferris faces this mixture of family worries, ghostly plans, and everyday chaos.
