Hi everyone,
To help build a common connection for all of us to How I Became A Ghost, I thought it would be useful if everyone could listen to Mr. Tingle introduce the backstory for the book, and read a little of the first chapter.
Click on the link below, and then select second link down -- the "Meet-the-Author Book Reading with Tim Tingle". This is the original TeachingBooks.net recording we made with him after the book was announced as a winner of the American Indian Youth Literature Award.

And fyi, the first link on this page is the complete "In-depth Written Interview" that Rob Reid previously referenced.
I hope you enjoy listening to the context for this book. I personally love the image of his father and uncles taking the 10-year-old Tim and 30 cousins into the thick woods of east Texas….
My very best,
Nick
