How to Catch a Bogle

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Sarah Watts. In this quasi-Victorian fantasy, apprentice Birdie uses her clear singing voice to lure child-eating bogles out of hiding so her master Alfred can destroy them. Then the worst happens: Birdie is captured by dreadful Dr. Morton, who thinks nothing of feeding children to bogles to further his megalomaniacal aims. Jinks is an assured storyteller: character, plot, and style develop with buoyant, pleasing momentum. Glos.
