Love it! All her books are good!

I read thirteen more Southern Ghosts while in school and after Miss Windham made a public appearance at the school. The stories were from all over the south and each were told in the simple forthright manner she wrote the Alabama ghost book. She included Jeffrey as he was always included in her books. It is a good read and not too fearsome for children to read.
