If Ghost can stay on track, literally and figuratively, he could be the best sprinter in the city. Our Reading with Relevance teacher’s guide breaks the novel into a series of thoughtful lesson plans.
Since then, Ghost has been the one causing problems-and running away from them-until he meets Coach, an ex-Olympic Medalist who sees something in Ghost: crazy natural talent. Ghost tells the story of Castle Crenshaw, a naturally gifted runner whose life is changed when he is recruited for his city’s elite middle-school track team. But Ghost has been running for the wrong reasons-it all started with running away from his father, who, when Ghost was a very little boy, chased him and his mother through their apartment, then down the street, with a loaded gun, aiming to kill. That's all Ghost (real name Castle Cranshaw) has ever known. Castle Ghost Cranshaw feels like hes been running ever since his dad. They all have a lot to lose, but they also have a lot to prove, not only to each other, but to themselves. But they are also four kids chosen for an elite middle school track team-a team that could qualify them for the Junior Olympics if they can get their acts together. Four kids from wildly different backgrounds with personalities that are explosive when they clash.
