Marvelous Madcap Misadventures Masterminded By Margaret Mahy

Recipe for delightful middle grade novel: Mix a couple of ghosts, a Jigaw Puzzle championship, a school that teaches the tenets of Common Sense, an honest used-car salesman, and an 800-page novel that vanished during the Great Toasted Cheese Disaster. Sprinkle with verbal wordplay. Add a brisk pace and plenty of laughs. Wait until the last moment to garnish with surprise (but satisfying) ending. Sure to be a favorite among young readers - who may even want a second helping.
