Sam's little sister Michelle thinks there's a ghost in the creepy old house their dad bought. With help from a couple of friends on the soccer team, Sam, Amy, and Michelle use an old ghost story―plus measuring tools and calculations for distance, volume, and perimeters―to figure out the truth behind . . . The Secret Ghost.

Melinda Thielbar is a writer, teacher, statistician, and student of the martial arts. Manga Math Mysteries, including The Kung Fu Puzzle and The Secret Ghost is her first children’s series.
In 2005, Melinda left SAS to finish a PhD in statistics. She was awarded a VIGRE fellowship at North Carolina State University. This fellowship is awarded to students likely to make a strong contribution to education in the mathematics and statistics field. Again, Melinda earned a fantastic reputation in the classroom. Her statistics lectures and examples were known for their ability to hold her students' interest―no easy task in a statistics for non-majors class that's held at 8:00am.
Melinda lives in Raleigh, North Carolina with her husband, writer Richard Dansky, and their three cats. She is currently working on the research portion of her PhD.

In this third volume of the Manga Math Mysteries series, Sam’s father has bought an old house, and his little sister, Michelle, thinks there’s a ghost in her room. Tom and Amy decide to help Sam and Michelle, pondering an old ghost story and taking measurements of Michelle’s room to figure out what’s really going on there. The lively story and colorful, action-filled manga-style art help to make the math fun to learn in this series; it even teaches a little about kung fu, too. And young readers will especially enjoy the surprising truth behind the mystery. Grades 1-3. --Kat Kan
