‘Are there sometimes other children here?’
Mrs Oldknow looked at him as if she would like to know everything about him before she answered.
‘Yes,’ she said, ‘sometimes.’
Tolly has been sent to live with his great-grandmother, Mrs Oldknow, in an ancient manor house deep in the countryside. Green Knowe and its grounds are full of exciting toys, pictures and objects and there is so much to see and do. But not only that – the house is haunted! And the ghosts Toby, Alexander and Linnet all have their own stories to tell.

Tolly’s great grandmother isn’t a witch, but both she and her old house, Green Knowe, are full of a very special kind of magic. There are other children in the house – children who were happy there centuries before. Running around Green Knowe’s moat, gardens and mysterious rooms, Tolly slowly discovers them, their toys and animals, and their wonderful stories.
