<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n I have been searching for this book for years.\u00a0 It captured my imagination during childhood, and I must have read it at some point in the 1980\u2019s \u2013 may well have been published well before that.\u00a0 I am sure I have some details wrong, but the plot involves a child coming to visit a large home near a lake for the summer, with an older woman as the guardian for the summer.\u00a0 This woman had years ago lost her own child, her son, who I believe drowned in the lake.\u00a0 The details I remember more clearly involve a special lake island playhouse that she built especially for her son \u2013 the playhouse had its own furniture, dishes, silverware, etc.\u00a0 This special playhouse and island was off limits now that the son was dead, and the woman did not want to talk about him.\u00a0 I believe the dead son\u2019s name could have been Trelawney, or something like that.\u00a0 The child now visiting for the summer sneaks to explore the world of the island and the playhouse, and falls into some sort of danger.\u00a0 The ghost boy (? Trelawney) helps save the day. \u00a0For some reason I am thinking the word \u201cgreen\u201d may be in the title, but that could be wrong.\u00a0 Please help!!\u00a0 Thank you!<\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have been searching for this book for years.\u00a0 It captured my imagination during childhood, and I must have read it at some point in the 1980\u2019s \u2013 may well have been published well before that.\u00a0 I am sure I have some details wrong, but the plot involves a child coming to visit a large […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[18,17],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/732"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=732"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/732\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":734,"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/732\/revisions\/734"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=732"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=732"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/w1.loganberrybooks.com\/stumpthebookseller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=732"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
