About this listen

Against the ominous backdrop of the influenza epidemic of 1918, Elsie, the class tattletale, liar, and thief, claims the new girl at school, Annie, as her best friend. But Annie soon makes other friends as well and finds herself joining them in teasing and tormenting Elsie, who later succumbs to the epidemic and dies. Elsie is not absent from school long, though. She soon returns there as a ghost, ready to reclaim Annie's friendship and to punish all the girls who bullied her.

The story was engaging and moved along at a good pace. I would have liked to see more growth from the characters. None of them seemed to learn any lessons or to change for the better because of their experiences. They pretty much ended where they started.

Good story, flat characters

The story itself was amazing, but the narrator captured the exact theme I would have imagined the story to be pronounced in.

loved it❣️ Although I I was upset with Elsie half the time and angry 😡 at her close to 100%of the time as the story progressed, It slowly started to come together and make sense. THEN I understood. ❣️👏❣️ 10/10 would recommend!

The Title, I was doubtful but ..
