Summary: the worst book ever writen
Review: I Think this book is O.K because Uncle Arvie was a ghost, he had his own langauig and he could fly. Iliked how Dennis got to dig up a garden, paint a picture. if I were Uncle Arvie I would kick people in the face because they cant see me. My favorite character was Billy Baker because he broke two windows with rocks. The problem in this story was that Uncle Arvie was asking Dennis some stuff. But Dennis could understand. In the story, if I were a ghost I would eat the chocolates instead of smashing them. The end of the book was boring because the illustrations gave it away. I think it would be hard to write this book because you would have to make up your won language. The writer must have a good imagination. I recommend this book for young people because it is really fake and that it is boring, but little kids have good mental pictures.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: one of the greatest books
Review: I think this book was phenemenal. It is about a "regular" boy who encounters a ghoast. unfortunutly this wasn't what he really wanted, although he does have an interest in this peculiar ghost. I would encourage kids to read this book. I am 11 years old.

Summary: Pleasing the Ghost
Review: If you have ever had a ghost come through your window, you can relate to Dennis. He is a regular nine-year old boy, but odd things happen to him, like he get's visted by ghosts.But the main ghost is his Uncle Arvie, who asked for three pleases, (meaning three favors.) While doing the three pleases, one more promblem gets in the way. The school bully, Billy doesn't belive he can see ghosts,and he must show him before Billy breakes all the window's in his house! All the three pleases have somthing to do with Uncle Arvie's wife. A painting unfinised, digging up his wife's favorite roshbush, and a sweet poem. Now, if this sounds like a good book to you, you can get it under Sharon Creech Pleasing the Ghost at your local libary. What are you doing just sitting around? Go get it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pleasing book for fifth graders in New York!!
Review: My fifth grade class enjoyed reading and decoding the dialogue between the characters in this bbok. The mystery of the buried treasure and the words spoken by Uncle Arvie kept the class interested and motivated throughout the book. Quick read and funny.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A touching story...
Review: Pleasing the Ghost is a creative and touching story about a nine-year old boy who can see ghosts. I enjoyed reading this book to my class because it is the type of book that makes you want to hurry up reading to find out what is going to happen next. I recommend this book to all grade five students because it is interesting and students can relate to the main character who is about the same age as most grade 5 students. Have a good read!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pleasing The Ghost is a great thriller.
Review: Pleasing the Ghost was a great book that kept me reading. It was hard to understand what the uncle said, that is why this book got a nine instead of a ten.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Matters of the Heart
Review: Sharon Creech is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. I am helping homeschool my cousin and have been searching for juvenile literature of just this type. This is a light-hearted book dealing with powerful emotional issues. I would recommend this book for anyone, any age.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This was a good book but hard to understand.
Review: The book Pleasing the Ghost was a good book. For an 8 year old boy I didn't understand the word "heartfoot", the word "beany booger", and the word "needle pin needle". Some of the words where over my head and didn't make sense.
