Opis

Ebook version published on October 9, 2011. In book 3 of the Kiwi Series, Amy, James and Kiwi embark on their spookiest adventure yet - on Halloween. What begins with an eerie dream about a three-legged cat will take the budding detectives on a quest to find an old house in the middle of the woods, meeting some familiar characters and some perky squirrels along the way. Little do they know that there awaits an angry, restless ghost that will do anything to stop them leaving. Meanwhile, Inspector Furrball and Siam discover the human world, and some surprising news. Illustrations inside by Nikki McBroom. Furry fun for ages 9-99. "Kiwi and the kids have a dream of another cat crying out for help and discover that the haunted house where the stranded cat is at can only be entered on All Hallow's Eve. 'Living Nightmare' has just the right amount of scary bits along with humour to make it a very enjoyable read for kids of all ages." - Lady Wings "Johnstone has a way with the interaction of children and animals that provides a healthy partnership. She writes lyrically and keeps her stories moving along at a rapid pace... we can only hope for more." - Grady Harp "I really loved the scene where the catizens get to ride on the bus. These scenes had me laughing out loud. This may be a somewhat scary story, but the adventure and the fun does not diminish one bit. And fear not, as with all good stories, the 'good' side wins in the end (this is after all children's book and not high fantasy where authors relish in killing off one of their main characters). Finally, I have to say that parents now do not need to compromise and read the 'juvenile' books meant for kids as here is an option which would be interesting for the kids as well as their parents. I may be an adult, but I still read each of Vickie's stories with bated breath and expectation of new twists and newer characters in every book." - Ritesh Kala
