Reader's note

Beautifully illustrated throughout, this vintage book is a wonderful addition to any collection. This is a book of ghost stories. A little girl in her attic playroom makes a friend from Victorian days. Some boys creep into a ruined castle at night and can hear the ghost of a boy whistling to keep his courage up. In an old hotel a family share a strange experience, and later hear the sad story of a mother, long ago, whose children died of the plague. Brilliant to read with a bold blue cover that catches the magic, slightly mysterious feeling of 'long ago', The Phantom Cyclist is a brilliant old book that everybody should read.
