— Laura, 9/28/2012" Is the ghost of Babe Ruth really haunting Yankee Stadium? Mike and Kate are on the case again when a famous author, who has written a book about ghosts in ballparks, comes to Yankee Stadium. An adequate mystery for younger readers and I love the "dugout notes" at the end of the book. "
