Mayhem in Rumbury

SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY

Mayhem in Rumbury

Arabel Jones’s pet raven, Mortimer, is always up to something. In May Day in Rumbury he’s trying to build a nest out of umbrellas, but nobody will give him a moment’s peace. The Joneses’ house is full of people, antique books and cows, and everyone (except Arabel, of course) is more interested in the May Day preparations than in Mortimer.

In Mortimer and the Ghost, things take a spooky turn at Rumbury Bank when the four hundred-year-old ghost of a hapless debtor starts walking about the building. Mortimer and Arabel think they can help him – but will they be able to stop everyone else helping themselves to the ghostly gold?
