The Grave of Lainey Grace — Aaron Galvin
A magical mystery. A girl with a big imagination.
Every year, when the last leaf of summer falls, roses are laid at the grave of Lainey Grace. The only trouble is that no one knows who steals into the cemetery after the gates are closed and locked, least of all the head groundskeeper, Bob.
When Bob is warned he'll be fired if the rose-givers sneak in again, his ten-year-old granddaughter, Briar Ann Wade, decides to find out who the perpetrators are and why they only come each fall. Briar discovers the answer to the mystery only to learn, as her grandpa says, grief and love take many forms...and there is healing in both.
The Grave of Lainey Grace is a standalone novel, recommended for ages 9+. If you like sweet, coming-of-age tales, then you'll love following this plucky heroine as she learns to understand life and death, and how we all just want to do better.
