The Dollhouse: A Ghost Story

By: Charis Cotter

Narrated by: AJ Bridel

A creepy, mysterious dollhouse takes center stage in this atmospheric middle-grade mystery for fans of Doll Bones and Small Spaces.

Alice's world is falling apart. Her parents are getting a divorce, and they've cancelled their yearly cottage trip -- the one thing that gets Alice through the school year. Instead, Alice and her mom are heading to some small town where Alice's mom will be a live-in nurse to a rich elderly lady.

The house is huge, imposing and spooky, and everything inside is meticulously kept and perfect -- not a fun place to spend the summer. Things start to get weird when Alice finds a dollhouse in the attic that's an exact replica of the house she's living in. Then she wakes up to find a girl asleep next to her in her bed -- a girl who looks a lot like one of the dolls from the dollhouse . . .

When the dollhouse starts to change when Alice isn't looking, she knows she has to solve the mystery. Who are the girls in the dollhouse? What happened to them? And what is their connection to the mean and mysterious woman who owns the house?

"The Dollhouse is a page-turner with an ingenious plot, evocative setting, enriching detail and lots of action that young readers will certainly enjoy." —CM: Canadian Review of Materials

Very good ghost story.

I loved this story. They called it a ghost story, but it was more like a mystery to me. I really enjoyed listening to AJBridel, too
enough.

spooky fun story

I really like this book. I wasn't sure at first, but I'm glad I purchased it. I fell in love with Lily, she was the cutest. The narrator was incredible. She went above and beyond with the narration. I wish all of the audito books could be narrated by her. She did of the voices so well, I felt like I was a part of the story.
