10-Year-Old Annie Richards is very, very, very sad. Her 11-year-old brother, Jared, had just died. Now Annie won't eat hot dogs anymore (you might get food poisoning!!!) and ride down hill on a bike (you could fall and crack your skull open!) and is now convinced that she has Ebola.
Annie Richards is under an Umbrella of Sadness and thinks that she could die any second, yet she is very healthy (that's what her friend Rebecca's dad, who is a doctor, says).
But when an elderly, boring old neighbor moves into the "haunted house" down the street, she thinks that maybe she can close Annie's umbrella.
