In "Things Seen from Above" by Shelley Pearsall, two unlikely friends, a teenager named Ben and a ghost named an orphaned boy named Jeffrey, navigate the complexities of life, loss, and redemption. Set against the backdrop of a school where a new building is planned to replace an old one, Ben grapples with his own struggle for identity and belonging. Through their unique friendship, they confront their pasts, uncovering hidden truths about hope, friendship, and the importance of seeing the world from different perspectives. Their journey becomes a powerful exploration of connection and the legacies we leave behind. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
