Ideal for 6th-8th graders
Rating: 9/10
This is a great book about a creepy old house. Though eerie it is a great book to buy and I am sure you will enjoy it. If you liked Doll Bones this is the book for you.
“It has all the elements of an amazing Gothic mystery: two orphans looking for a home, a remote and mysterious location, strange creatures wandering at night, a forbidden room, a family secret, and a storyteller’s warning. Readers of all ages will find it hard to put this book down!” - Resource Links
“The Night Gardener is a highly satisfactory instance not only of the traditional Gothic thriller but of a thriller in the broad sense, with a great deal of action and genuinely appealing protagonists." - The National Post
