( ) Brother and sister Rollo and Madlyn are sent to live temporarily with their Great Uncle Sir George and his sister Emily. It's just for the summer, but Sir George and Emily have enough problems, as they have hardly any paying customers coming to tour their rather shabby castle. It's hard to get any attention when the upstart new owners of nearby Trembellow Towers have bought up all the good antiques for their own museum. Madlyn and Rollo come up with a superb idea of hiring a collection of ghosts to terrify the visitors, which people really like. Soon the castle is making money, which Sir George uses to care for his beloved herd of rare white cattle, but being the only herd of its kind gains them the notice of horrible people. The quirky ghosts are pure Ibbotson, but the overall theme of this story is about treating animals humanely. Om två syskon som ska tillbringa sommaren hos några äldre släktingar medan föräldrarna är i USA och jobbar ihop välförtjänta pengar. Också på slottet saknas pengar och syskonen kommer på idén att ta hjälp av riktiga spöken för att locka fler besökare. Planen funkar men tyvärr finns det andra som vill utnyttja samma idé och som framför allt inte vill varken barnen, slottet eller slottets stolthet: den vita koflocken väl. När korna försvinner får barnen och spökena ett helt annat uppdrag än de tänkt sig... Spännande, sorglig, rolig, medryckande med karaktärer man verkligen känner för. Precis det där som gör Eva Ibbotsons böcker så speciella innehåller också den här boken. Stundtals är den ganska mörk, men också det är karaktärisktiskt på ett mycket possitivt sätt. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
