In Shiverhawk Hall's nursery, portraits of well-behaved children are "seen and not heard." At night, however, these model children creep out of their portraits and wreak havoc all through "the big old house." The rhyming text and engaging illustrations are a hoot, even if the story isn't fully formed. Note the dog, cat, and mouse that appear in every double-page spread.
