Do you believe in ghosts? Jerry doesn't. He's a 19-year-old American, who just wants a good holiday with his friend, Brad. They are travelling around the north of England by bicycle. But strange things begin to happen in a small hotel where they are staying. First, Brad seems to think that he has been there before. And then a girl called Ellen appears. The first of these three orginal plays is set in the seventeenth century, and the other two take place in modern times. In each play a ghost comes back from the dead to change the lives of living people.

You have never seen him before, but you realize immediately that he hates you. You are shocked to discover, also, that you hate him. Who is this man that everybody hates? And why is he coming out of the laboratory of the very respectable Dr Jekyll?

Third Edition Charles Dickens Retold by Clare West
'Please, Mr Murdstone! Don't beat me! I've tried to learn my lessons, really I have, sir!' sobs David.
Although he is only eight years old, Mr Murdstone does beat him, and David is so frightened that he bites his cruel stepfather's hand. For that, he is kept locked in his room for five days and nights, and nobody is allowed to speak to him.
As David grows up, he learns that life is full of trouble and misery and cruelty. But he also finds laughter and kindness, trust and friendship . . . and love.
