Meet Araminta, the star of a delightfully "spookie" chapter book series for kids who love funny ghost stories, from Angie Sage, author of the bestselling Septimus Heap series!
Araminta Spookie lives in a wonderful old haunted house, but her crabby aunt Tabby wants to move. Aunt Tabby is determined to sell their house—Araminta has to stop her!
With the help of a haunted suit of armor named Sir Horace, a ghost named Edmund, and a lot of imagination, this mischievous hero hatches a plot for an Awful Ambush that is so ghoulish, it just might work!
But scaring people away isn’t as easy as it looks—especially when the potential buyers love spooky stuff as much as she does.

• A Mischievous Hero: Araminta loves her home, and she’ll do anything to protect it, even if it means concocting an ‘Awful Ambush’ with slime, spiders, and strawberry Jell-O.
• Spooky (Not Scary) Friends: With a ghostly boy named Edmund and a talking suit of armor named Sir Horace on her side, Araminta is never truly alone in her paranormal adventures.
• Haunted House Antics: Explore secret passages, meet a whole colony of bats, and discover what happens when your best-laid spooky plans go perfectly, horribly right.
• Laugh-Out-Loud Funny: A perfect chapter book for young readers who love stories full of humor, heart, and just the right amount of ghoul.
