Why read it?
1 author picked Eleanor, Alice, and the Roosevelt Ghosts as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I’m interested in anything Roosevelt family-related (Theodore and/or Franklin), so I had to read this book by Dianne K. Salerni, a supernatural mystery set in an alternate history. While this fast-paced ghost story is the author’s creation, the family situations of the two fourteen-year-old cousins circa 1898 reflect the realities of their lives at the time.

From Laura's list on magical middle-grade books set in the real world.
