My Haunted House

(3) 4-6 Araminta Spookie series. Illustrated by Jimmy Pickering. Two books centering on young Araminta's life in her quirky haunted house are just right for younger intermediate readers, with roomy layouts, plentiful illustrations, breezy tone, and mild subject matter (the ghosts are benevolent rather than scary). For those not yet ready for Eva Ibbotson (Dial-a-Ghost) or Harry Potter, these first two series entries are easily digested, enjoyable fare. Review covers these Araminta Spookie titles: My Haunted House and The Sword in the Grotto.
