Under the Reading Tree

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

🌳 A friendship beyond time. A mystery waiting to be solved. 🌳

When fourteen-year-old Lara spends spring break in a quiet countryside village, she expects nothing but books and boredom. Instead, she meets Frederick—a boy who died more than two hundred years ago, whose spirit is bound to an ancient tree.

With only days before her vacation ends, Lara must unravel the truth of Frederick's past and help him find peace. But can one girl solve a centuries-old mystery before it's too late?

Perfect for readers who love The Secret Garden, Bridge to Terabithia, and Tom's Midnight Garden, this heartwarming middle-grade story blends mystery, history, and gentle supernatural magic into an unforgettable tale of friendship and courage.
