This book is suitable for reluctant readers of 8-13 with a reading age of eight years. It is printed on cream paper, which is proven to be more restful on the eye. The font is specially designed to encourage a smooth and easy read. There are frequent page breaks, short, headed chapters and illustrations on almost every page. A wide range of specialists, including children themselves, have read and commented on the book prior to publication. When Sammy's parents buy him a parrot in an antique cage he gets more than he expected. Soon there are private ghosts all over the house, but only Sammy can see them! He has to help them escape the old Captain Red Beard the Really Rotten in this swashbuckling adventure story.
