Ghost, by Jason Reynolds
Each Friday that school is in session, I share the link to a read-aloud preview of a book from SRCSA library. The “First-chapter Friday” selection for Sept. 19, 2025 is Ghost, by Jason Reynolds.
Ghost (real name: Castle Cranshaw) has been running for all the wrong reasons — until he meets Coach, an ex-Olympic Medalist who sees something in Ghost: crazy natural talent. Can Ghost harness his raw talent for speed, or will his past catch up to him? Ghost was a finalist, in 2016, for the National Book Award (Young People’s Literature).
