Poblocki, Dan The Stone Child, 288 p. Random House, 2009. $15.99. Content: PG (supernatural suspense, but nothing else troublesome). Eddie, 12, and his family have suddenly moved to Gatesweed, which also happens to be the hometown of Nathaniel Olmstead, Eddie’s favorite author of mystery and suspense books. Before the family even arrives in town, strange and dangerous things start happening. Only with the help of a new friend and a reclusive girl can Eddie figure out why Olmstead disappeared more than 13 years ago, what is behind the strange deeds, and how to stop them. This is only Mr. Poblocki’s first books, but I think he is going to give Mary Downing Hahn and Betty Ren Wright a run for their money! EL, MS – ESSENTIAL. Cindy, Library-Teacher.
