Now that Ivy and Bean are friends, they do gymnastics club together, sit together in Ms. Aruba-Tate's second grade, and tell each other their darkest secrets. And when Ivy discovers a ghost in the school bathroom, it will take both girls' courage and imagination to make it go away. Another entertaining installment in this series about two mischievous, funny, clever girls.

Ivy + Bean and the Ghost That Had to Go

10/11/11| Val Wheeler

I rated this book four stars because it is a cliff-hanger! I like the part when Ivy and Bean make the oath. That chapter is called "The Oath of Liquids." Another part I like is when Ivy and Bean flush their presents for the ghost down the toilet, and then the toilet overflows and the water gets the teacher high heeled red shoes dirty and wet. Annie Barrows is a very good author, and the illustrations, by Sophie Blackall, were great too.

Fun and exciting. I recommend this book for a 21st century, second grade read.
