Product description

“We must kidnap some children,” announced Aunt Etta. “Young, strong ones. It will be dangerous, but it must be done.”

“Attack of the Killer Aunts,” scream the headlines. “Aunt Plague Menaces City!” Three children have been dramatically kidnapped by some mysterious aunts. But Myrtle, Coral and Etta are far from killers. They need the children for a special mission. The secret island where they live is a sanctuary for magical creatures – mermaids, selkies, the amazing boobrie bird and even the great Kraken himself. Now the kidnapped children will help to care for them. But what will they all do when the Island of Monsters attracts some dangerous villains, who want to turn it into a theme park…?

“Funny, gripping, charming and completely irresistible” Amanda Craig

Eva Ibbotson is the award-winning author of many books for children and adults. She has a daughter and three sons, who showed her that children like to read about ghosts, wizards, and witches “because they are just like people but madder and more interesting.”

She was born in Vienna, in Austria, but moved to England with her family when the Nazis came to power. After training to be a physiologist which she didn’t enjoy because she didn’t like doing experiments on animals, Eva got married and had four very nice children.

Her first children’s book, The Great Ghost Rescue was published in 1975, and she is best known for titles like Journey to the River Sea and The Dragonfly Pool. Eva died in 2010, aged 85.

    This was a great book. Follow the lives of children who have been kidnapped by three aunts and taken to an island roaming with creatures. I would reccomend.
