Reviews

[Sophie Crane]

This is a great book! It is about a girl called Dinah, who has defeated the Demon Headmaster on many occasions. But then, her adoptive Dad gets a new job, and the family have to move. Dinah takes this as an opportunity to forget all about the Demon Headmaster, but she, and her adoptive brothers Lloyd and Harvey, soon discover their new home is in a village where all is not as it seems.Can the trio figure out what is wrong with the village? This was a great read, and I would recommend it to readers aged 9+

[Veronica]

Really good but a bit spooky!

[Sally]

Not as awesome as the first in the series, but still definitely worth the read/watch - I saw the TV series first and just loved it :D

[Edward Davies]

The coincidences start to mount up as Dinah and co move to a community that has been taken over by none other than the Demon Headmaster. Not as good as the other books, but still pretty fun.

[Fatma]

maybe try this when they older.
