Rat is going to have to go to school. Not to any school, no matter who runs it or how cool it is. That is, until Humpty is called to the school to investigate a ghost, and Merlin tells Rat he might be the one to finally pull the sword from the stone.

My Review: Another winner for middle aged boys and girls. The characters appeal to boys, but one of the main characters this time is a girl so I would try this book for both boys and girls ages 7 and up. Ghosts, magic, fairy-tale like characters, and one normal boy and girl are elements used in this story. The illustrations are great! I love the way the ghosts are portrayed. The gross elements are also included which appeal to children such as the skinny man in old underwear, scraping boogers, etc. Again watch the video.
