Product Description

 
David is curious about meeting Amanda, the daughter of his new stepmother, Molly. When Amanda arrives, David is immediately intrigued. Amanda is a student of the occult--complete with a ceremonial costume and a crow named Rolor. Before long, Amanda has recruited David and his younger siblings into joining her in her studies. When she sets out to prove that there's a ghost in the house, David can't be sure if she's serious. Could the ghost be the real thing, or is it just Amanda's rather strange sense of humor? A 1972 Newbery Honor Book.

Find a gem while hunting for Cupid's Head

Date of Review:  May 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: The Headless Cupid is a good readaloud or an amusing afternoon read for anyone between the ages of eight and eighty.
Review: Dear Saralinda:*

It's been awhile since I've sent you a book, especially now that your mom tells me that you're reading John Irving. If you've moved on to such adult literature, perhaps the young adult novels no longer hold any appeal...
