He'd be a hero among his friends if he was the first boy to cross the haunted gates! Just because Papá didn't believe in ghosts didn't mean they weren't there. Maybe this summer Papá would finally take him. He was almost twelve. ©2020 by Pam Muñoz Ryan Which choice best describes the overall purpose of the text?
