A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Alex Woolf studied history at the University of Essex. He writes information and fiction books for children aged 7 and upwards, including exciting series set in Shakespearean England and a steampunk alternate 19th century. Aldo Moon and the Case of the Ghost at Gravewood Hall, about a teenage Victorian ghost-hunter, was one of Lovereading4kids’ books of the year in 2013, and described by best-selling crime writer Peter James as ‘a real delight, witty, ghostly and at times deliciously ghastly.’
