What do you buy someone for their 500th birthday? Araminta is desperately of the perfect gift for her favourite ghost, Sir Horace, but it's hard to buy a gift for someone with no specific hobbies, and no body. Then an inspired idea leads to trouble when all does not go as planned, and Araminta wonders whether she'll ever see Horace or her family again, let alone time to organize a party.

      Katherine Kellgren's voice sweeps away the scary and leaves the spooky in this second Araminta Spookie adventure. Intrepid Araminta and wimpy Wanda Wizzard find a grotto deep inside a cave under Spookie House, their very haunted house. In the grotto is an ancient sword, which they're sure would make a perfect birthday gift for Sir Horace, their terminally depressed house ghost. The BIG problem: How to reach it? Kellgren is engaging as Araminta and the squeaky Wanda, and she's hauntingly haughty as 500-year-old Sir Horace. Youngsters will appreciate this story more if they've listened to Sage's first book in the series, MY HAUNTED HOUSE, but Kellgren's performance makes THE SWORD IN THE GROTTO so much fun that not knowing the back story doesn't hurt a bit.
