About this ebook
When Trina and her father move into an abandoned wreck of a mansion called Goldenrod, Trina thinks her life is finally coming together. She can put down roots at last. Maybe she'll even have a best friend! But the kids at school make fun of her, and it seems like Goldenrod itself is haunted.
Then Trina finds Augustine, a tiny porcelain doll left behind when the house was boarded up a century ago. Augustine isn't like other dolls: she talks and talks and talks. Augustine helps Trina realize that Goldenrod is trying to tell her an important secret . . . one that may just change her life.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great story for grade school girls. An old house holding in secrets of the past. Is it haunted or just needing the right people to live in it?
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5When I spotted The Secret of Goldenrod in a library display, I was attracted by the Victorian house on the cover. The information on the front flap sounded good, so I checked it out. I'm glad I did.
