1 Lynne Reid Banks Melusine
HarperTeen 0380791358 / 9780380791354 PAPERBACK Very Good 
0380791358 From Publishers Weekly nThe chateau at which Roger and his family arrive for vacation is not what they had hoped; apart from a few resplendent rooms, the place is rundown and dirty. Roger instantly christens the owner, Monsieur Serpe, an ogre, and sets out to befriend his lovely daughter Melusine by helping her milk her goats. But Roger stumbles into mythic elements and family intrigue: a forbidden locked tower beckons Roger, and Melusine seems to be not only the victim of abuse, but of much darker secrets as well. Banks ( The Writing on the Wall ; Indian in the Cupboard ) piles illusion upon illusion, hemming Roger into his ultimate choices but also revealing his compassion and faith in incredible facts. Roger and all his family's members are deftly created, and the author's handling of fairy-tale archetypes (the ogre and his accursed daughter) borders on the sublime. A complex and vastly entertaining gothic novel. Ages 12-up. nCopyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. n nBook Description nWhat is the sinister mystery of Chateau Bois Serpe? n nRoger, his parents, and twin sisters arrive at this crumbling ruin in the wilds of France, anticipating a holiday that's different. And so it proves, but not as they'd hoped. The owner, the strange daughter Mesuline, whom Roger first meets tending her father's goats. She is like no girl he has ever seen, with her brusqueness and her expressionless black eyes, and as he gradually befriends her, he begins to realize that there is something very wrong about her, about the chateau, and about her life within it. n nRoger senses a cry for help. How can he know that by trying to answer it, he will involve himself and his family in a shocking drama that reaches its climax in a grisly discovery -- and sudden death?

2 Lynne Reid Banks The Indian in the Cupboard (rack)
HarperTrophy 0380725584 / 9780380725588 PAPERBACK Good 
0380725584 Amazon Review nWhat could be better than a magic cupboard that turns small toys into living creatures? Omri's big brother has no birthday present for him, so he gives Omri an old medicine cabinet he's found. Although their mother supplies a key, the cabinet still doesn't seem like much of a present. But when an exhausted Omri dumps a plastic toy Indian into the cabinet just before falling asleep, the magic begins. Turn the key once and the toy comes alive; turn it a second time and it's an action figure again. n nThe Indian in the Cupboard is one of those rare books that is equally appealing to children and adults. The story of Omri and the Indian, Little Bear, is replete with subtle reminders of the responsibilities that accompany friendship and love. For kids, it's a great yarn; for most parents, it's also a reminder that Omri's wrenching decision to send his toy back to its own world is not so different from the recognition of their children's emerging independence. n nThe Indian in the Cupboard is also available in Spanish (La Llave Magica.) (The publisher recommends this book for children ages 9-12, although younger kids will enjoy hearing it read aloud.) --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition. n nReview nA Superb Fantasy -- --Los Angeles Herald Examiner n nA wondeful Story -- --Cleveland Plain Dealer n nLynne Reid Banks touches a nerve in young people-adults,too-and touches it with wit, excitement, and poignancy. -- -- Lloyd Alexander
