"It's the summer before fifth grade, and for Ferris Wilkey, it is a summer of sheer pandemonium: Her little sister, Pinky, has vowed to become an outlaw. Uncle Ted has left Aunt Shirley and, to Ferris's mother's chagrin, is holed up in the Wilkey basement to paint a history of the world. And Charisse, Ferris's grandmother, has started seeing a ghost at the threshold of her room, which seems like an alarming omen given that she is also feeling unwell. But the ghost is not there to usher Charisse to the Great Beyond. Rather, she has other plans--wild, impractical, illuminating plans. How can Ferris satisfy a specter with Pinky terrorizing the town, Uncle Ted sending Ferris to spy on her aunt, and her father battling an invasion of raccoons? As Charisse likes to say, "Every good story is a love story," and Kate DiCamillo has written one for the ages: emotionally resonant and healing, showing the two-time Newbery Medalist at her most playful, universal, and profound."--

The most bizarre sex death ever is not the one in which a man died during a twelve-hour orgy after betting his friends he could have sex for half a day straight. Neither is it the one in which a lion ate a woman while her boyfriend ran naked to the police station. You would never guess. This book is a collection of all the craziest deaths that occurred during sex. The only thing we are not sure of is whether it's material for laughter or tears."Such a bizarre yet entertaining book! When the grim reaper decides it's time, he doesn't care if someone is in the middle of an orgasm! Some deaths are shocking, but some made me crack up."- Madame Magdalena, author of "How to Snag that Millionaire When You're not the Prettiest Girl in the Room"
