It's a breeze to read, too. Simply written with an accessible vocabulary but never simplistic, and there are plenty of jokes to balance out the scary parts. ''Childish Spirits'' is the first in a planned series and I'm already looking forward to book two.
''Childish Spirits'' is available in {{amazonurl|isbn=1783064617|title=paperback format}}, as an {{amazonurl|isbn=B07RLDX7Q1|title=ebook}} and also as an {{amazonurl|isbn=B07SNGJ39G|title=audiobook}}.
Recommended. School librarians: this good-hearted novel would make a great addition to your shelves.
Slightly more scary, but fabulously Gothic, is [[Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror by Chris Priestley]]. For more bickering (and we mean a lot more bickering) try [[The Catchers in Pirates, Thieves, Zombies and Magic by Stuart J Kent]]. You might appreciate [[Spirit by Sally Christie]] but we think ''Childish Spirits'' is the better book. [[Rob Keeley's ''Spirits'' series in Chronological Order]]
