"A gentle, glowing wonder, full of love and understanding." –The New York Times Book Review

It's the summer before middle school and eleven-year-old Bug's best friend Moira has decided the two of them need to use the next few months to prepare. For Moira, this means figuring out the right clothes to wear, learning how to put on makeup, and deciding which boys are cuter in their yearbook photos than in real life. But none of this is all that appealing to Bug, who doesn't particularly want to spend more time trying to understand how to be a girl. Besides, there's something more important to worry about: A ghost is haunting Bug's eerie old house in rural Vermont...and maybe haunting Bug in particular. As Bug begins to untangle the mystery of who this ghost is and what they're trying to say, an altogether different truth comes to light--Bug is transgender.

Magic, Mayhem, Ghosts and First Love!
Format: Hardcover
This book has it all: amazing Halloween feels, magic gone awry, ghosts wreaking havoc, family secrets, and even a delightful first crush! As a middle child, Tennie thinks it's her job to keep her big, rambunctious family in order, but she could really use a break. So she's thrilled when she gets the chance to stay with her grandma, away from all the family chaos, but that changes when she accidentally unleashes a whole host of restless spirits. And what's more, those spirits have something to tell her about grandma's mysterious new boyfriend, a secret that might upend everything she knows about her family and their beloved mountain home. This book is teeming with beautiful odes to nature and delightfully folksy language that draws readers into the cozy, bucolic Appalachian setting. The friendship and budding romance between Tennie and Fox shines off the page, and readers will experience all of the tingles, speed bumps and awkwardness of a first crush. Van Otterloo weaves a poignant tale about families going through tough times but ultimately finding hope and strength in each other, and, of course, it's all suffused with a delightful dose of oh-so-cozy magic. Layered alongside the family tale is an important storyline about protecting nature and valuing the "small" lives of country folk, which we can see by the end of the story are anything but small.

Folksy, spooky, downright darling
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Oh my goodness, this book. Ash Van Otterloo is quickly becoming one of my insta-read authors. Their folksy, spooky, downright darling stories are such a joy to read! A TOUCH OF RUCKUS was magnificent. I adored Tennie and Fox's relationship, the ghosts were creepy as heck, and the setting of a small, mountain-side town was as charming as ever. If I could eat pizza, I would have taken a bookstagram pic with it and this book! Boy, did it make me hungry!! 🍕

Ash Van Otterloo is one of my absolute favorite middle grade authors. Their voice is so beautiful and full of heart and I always find myself quickly lost in their books. I absolutely adored everything about these characters and this story. I can’t wait to read whatever Ash Van Otterloo writes next!

Entertaining for 1-3 year olds

An Instant Fav

My son loves construction vehicles, trucks, and tractors so this was a big hit. The art is great and he loves the big foldout pages. We read it every night.
