5.0 out of 5 stars Don't let the title fool you!, December 3, 2003

This review is from: Mandie and the Charleston Phantom (Mandie, Book 7) (Paperback)

Mandie is visiting her friend Tommy in Charleston, and she is very excited to see the ocean for the first time.
But strange things are happening. While walking on the beach, Mandie and Tommy see a wispy white thing hovering about the water. Tommy's sister Josephine is convinced that the white apparition is a phantom. But Mandie wonders. Does Josephine know more about it than she claims?

When I first saw this title, I was a bit wary of it because I'm not allowed to read books about ghosts and whatnot. But after getting a book description from a friend I was reassured, so I went ahead and read it.
I was pleasantly surprised. Mandie's like me, she doesn't believe in ghosts, but can imagine them enough to give her the chills.
This is an excellent addition to anyone's Mandie collection, but don't let the title fool you. All the 'phantoms' are fake anyway.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Mandie and the Charleston Phantom (Mandie, Book 7) (Paperback)

Hi,Im called Anna-may Martin.Im a home-schooler and live in Australia.Im 12 years old.I read Mandie and the "Charleston Phantom" not to long ago.And I really enjoyed the book.It starts off with Mandie and her friend fighting.Whilst her stay at Charleston strange things start to happen.And Tommy's odd sister is spoiling her time with storie's and the strange way She is acting.Also,the fight with Joe at the start of the book nag's her.The truth comes out at the end of the book and the fight that Mandie has with Joe end's up fine.I reccomand this super book to any Mandie fan,keep it up Lois!!!
