Missing May
By Cynthia Rylant
When May dies suddenly while gardening, Summer assumes she'll never see her beloved aunt again. But then Summer's Uncle Ob claims that May is on her way back--she has sent a sign from the spirit world.
Summer isn't sure she believes in the spirit world, but her quirky classmate Cletus Underwoodwho befriends Ob during his time of mourningdoes. So at Cletus' suggestion, Ob and Summer (with Cletus in tow) set off in search of Miriam B. Young, Small Medium at Large, whom they hope will explain May's departure and confirm her possible return.
Excerpt:
“It’s called a what kind of church?” Ob said as he looked over Cletus’s shoulder at the newspaper clipping that had been pulled from the famous suitcase.
“Spiritualist,” Cletus said. “The Spiritualist Church of Glen Meadows, it says right here. Over in Putnam County.”
