5.0 out of 5 stars Granddaughter Delighted, 9 Feb 2009
By Mr. J. A. Murdoch (Belfast Northern Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

For our granddaughter Victoria's 11th birthday in December we bought Adele Geras set of books "Historical House" these were mostly bought through Amazon and she has really enjoyed each of them. They are 'stand-alone' stories yet comprise a great set of adventure, intrigue and history.
