The Curse of the Lion's Heart
by Angella Graff
Alexandra Fry is just your average seventh-grader. She's dealing with friends, bullies, and... the Supernatural? Starting a new school, Alexandra hopes to leave her old life and old reputation of “Loopy Lexi”, behind. But it’s not so easy when Alexandra is the kind of girl who sees ghosts. And not just any ghosts, but history’s most famous. Finding herself visited by the ghost of Queen Elizabeth I, Alexandra is asked to help her with a problem. A locket has gone missing. But it's not just your average historical artifact. The locket is cursed, and in the wrong hands it could put the entire world in danger. It’s up to Alexandra and her new friends, Penelope and Jack, to find out who took the locket and why. Ducking security guards and breaking and entering is just your average day for this seventh grade girl.About the AuthorAngella Graff studied theology at the University of Arizona where she currently lives in Tucson, Arizona with her husband Joshua, three children, two cats, six fish, and one frisky Marimo Moss Ball.
