Sandwiched within awaits a whole host of superbly sinister, heart-hopping, mind-mashing tales. They are either hilarious, or haunting, and insist upon being read aloud so that the rhythm and tempo, if not the understanding of every word, really do make listeners, of any age, jump leaving them addicted to this fire-work of a book. Joseph Jacob's strange visitor, Mahy's ghost and Diana Wynne Jones' 'thing' in the bathroom cupboard mean everyday objects won't ever be the same again.
