(3) 4-6 Titus, Pandora, and baby Damp of the Strega-Borgia family grieve for their lost nanny, Mrs. McLachlan, while their mother deals with their father's false incarceration for murder. Ancestors, mythical beasts, familiars, and demons help out, with gross-out comedic interludes, as both nanny and father are restored at last. Vivid writing and a growing depth of feeling mark this entertaining series.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
