Where I’d Like To Be [EPUB ebook] 

A ghost saved twelve-year-old Maddies life when she was an infant, her Granny Lane claims, so Maddie must always remember that she is special. But its hard to feel special when youve spent your life shuffled from one foster home to another. And now that shes at the East Tennessee Childrens Home, Maddie feels even less special. She longs for a place to call home. She even has a book of houses in which she glues pictures of places shed like to live. Then one day, a new girl, Murphy, shows up at the Home armed with tales about exotic travels, being able to fly, and boys who recite poetry to wild horses. When Murphy offers Maddie something she has never had before, Maddie begins to wonder if she has finally found someone who feels like home.
