The Thing in the Basement: A Bloomsbury Reader Reviews

The Thing in the Basement explores how it feels to be the new kid at school and introduces children to the immense power of their own imagination. Good fun to share aloud, it's also a wonderful title for building confidence in young readers who are becoming more independent. A thrilling story about friendship, courage and coping with change.' * The School Librarian *
