A note for parents

Lily's Ghosts is a lighthearted middle-grade mystery with a supernatural twist set in a historic New Jersey town. The story focuses on friendship, curiosity, and solving a puzzle rather than scares, making it appropriate for readers ages 8–12 who enjoy mild ghost stories without graphic horror. While there are ghostly encounters and some tension around the mystery, the tone remains whimsical and the resolution emphasizes understanding over fear.
