Splendid to have this in paperback at last; it's one of the most successful stories of recent years for young juniors. Only Bertie, youngest of the Boggins, can see the ghost that has come to live in the coalshed. Put upon by older brother and sister, Bertie finds a strong ally in the ghost and together they have a great time. The ghost, a Victorian gentleman, driven from haunting the Spectre's Arms by the noise of the Haunted Cellar Disco, is a most engaging character and the book is full of gentle fun. Grab some copies while you can.
