Everyone in Emma's family is special. Her ancestors include Revolutionary War spies, brilliant scientists, and famous musicians--every single one of which learned of their extraordinary destiny through a dream.

For Emma, her own dream can't come soon enough. Right before her mother died, Emma promised that she'd do whatever it took to fulfill her destiny, and she doesn't want to let her mother down.

But when Emma's dream finally arrives, it points her toward an impossible task--finding a legendary treasure hidden in her town's cemetery. If Emma fails, she'll let down generations of extraordinary ancestors . . . including her own mother. But how can she find something that's been missing for centuries and might be protected by a mysterious singing ghost?

With her signature blend of lyrical writing, quirky humor, and unforgettable characters, Natalie Lloyd's The Key to Extraordinary cements her status as one of the most original voices writing for children today.

It is an amazing story of a girl on a quest . it has ghost in it though and can be scary for younger readers but it is not a spooky story over all,

This is the book my school's book club picked for our summer meeting. I haven't read it yet but it looks like a good one.

Just finished this book. It has wonderful characters and a great twist ending. The message is LOUD and c l e a r that everyone has a purpose, it doesn't matter how old you are, what you look like or what you do. Super fun read great for people how have recently lost someone or like a good ghost mystery. I totally reccomend it.
