I adore all the Green Knowe books, but this one was especially good!

This time Tolly meets the ghosts of Susan, a blind girl, and Jacob, a black boy rescued from slavery, and we are transported to the ancient days of Green Knowe through the enchanting stories. Tolly is searching for the lost jewels of Lady Maria, because only the ancient treasure will save Green Knowe, repair the roof, rescue the family paintings, and keep the old castle from crumbling.

Tolly is such a curious, daring little person. I love following his adventures and discoveries! I like how he feels so attached to the house of Green Knowe, and how he is connected to all those who lived there before him.

As always, Boston's writing is enchanting and delightful! I adore reading her books, and I listened to this one on audiobook.
