"I received a review copy from Amazon Vine and voluntarily provided an honest review. This does not affect the opinion of the book or the content of the review."
First time reading this author and she can definitely write a story. The description was very vivid and it felt like I was along side the characters which I enjoyed. The main character, Mollie, annoyed me since she kept making the same mistakes over and over after she was warned. I know she is a kid but come on. You have to smarten up. I like the message of not judging someone because they are different and to treat people with kindness. I think kids will enjoy this book a lot especially since Halloween is coming and it has a spooky vibe.

Someone recommended this & I had to finish it so we could discuss it. Otherwise, a DNF for me.

Thanks to Netgalley.com and the publisher for letting me read this ARC.
Another great read from my favorite kids scary book author Mary Downing Hahn. It's a bit different than her usual story. This one doesn't have a main character in present day dealing with a ghost from 100 years in the past but in this book we are dealing with a changeling.
Mollie loves her little baby brother, Thomas, but she has to say that he is an ugly dreadful boy so the Kinde Folke won't come and take him and leave one of their babies. Mollie says things she shouldn't and her baby brother is switched.
The author, in the author's notes, says she was inspired by her trip to Ireland where she learned about the local folklore. A great spooky story.
