Description During Books The Mirror Image Ghost

We picked this up in a charity shop and having enjoyed Marianne Dreams and noticing this was by the same author we gave it a try. If we hadn't had previous experience of this author I would probably not have read this as the cover and the very obvious title would have put me off.

Lisa lives happily with her mother, her father died when she was young. When Lisa's mum meets someone new and they marry she finds her stepfather's children living with them. They do not get on and suprisingly this was well written and their feelings and interactions were interesting, which often is not the case as it can be boring listening to arguments and disagreements. The other storyline revolves around Lisa's grandfather. Born in Vienna he moves to England during the second world war and escapes the Holocaust in which sadly his family dies. There is time travel and a mystery during which the family grow to be closer and Lisa discovers more about her grandfather's past.

I am sure this book, in particularly the character of Grandpa's 6 year old sister Elsbet inspired Morris Gleitzman's character Zelda, Elsbet even says 'Don't you know anything' which is Zelda's catchphrase. Their characters are identical and even in one part Now and Then is used as a description.

I'm suprised this book isn't well known, I felt it showed a sensitive insight into world war two and it's impact on survivors and their families.

Crit About Books The Mirror Image Ghost

Not 100% sure about this book. The plot lines has so much potential, just felt like it didnt land but I cant say why. Was going to be a 4 star because of the niggly plot line then I read the ending and was significantly let down. It was an alright read but wouldnt be something I recommended to people.

I picked up the book without much expectation from an old bookstore, and got fascinated by it. Inktober didnt allow me to get further than chapter 9 until yesterday, when I brought it to the dinner table thinking Id finish another chapter before continuing my work later at night, then i couldnt put it down except for cleaning the dishes and feeding my dog which were done quite reluctantly. It even took me some time to blow my nose and to wipe my tears before going on with the reading, and its

The Mirror Image Ghost is a fiction book, written by Catherine Storr.It is a book with about 140 pages, so it will be easy to read. Personally, I think this book is suited to age 10+, because maybe under 10, it is hard to read a book like this, and Catherine Storr is also the author of Marianne Dreams, another hit book by her.The characters in the book are Lisa, Pierre, Alice, Fanny and Laurent.The book is about a girl, Lisa, who gets a stepfather, and she is uncomfortable with the kids he

loved this one - bit spooky but still not sure Katie should read it yet! Brings up all sorts of questions about the holocaust.

I got this book for Easter, and read it immediately. It is about a girl in present-day, who sees a ghost. Present mixes with past and it involves WWII
