Midnight for Charlie Bone

406 pp. | Scholastic/Orchard | March, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-439-47429-9 $$9.95
(4) 4-6 Children of the Red King series. When Charlie learns that he can hear the voices of the subjects of old photographs, Grandma Bone sends him to Bloor's Academy, an art school for magically talented descendants of a near-mythical Red King. While there, Charlie makes friends and sides with the good descendants against the wicked ones. Abrupt pacing and amateurish style drag down this otherwise intriguing story.
