Praise for THE INTERRUPTED TALE (Book IV): "Happily, the mysteries deepen at Ashton Place in this fourth volume in the Incorrigible Children series. Once again delightful wordplay and a plot that snakes itself around a suspicious family tree add to the deliciousness." - Booklist (starred review) Praise for THE UNSEEN GUEST (Book III): "Still howling good fun." - Kirkus Reviews "Whets the appetite for the next installment in this wonderful series. A must-have." - School Library Journal "The undercurrent of "something wicked this way comes" and the signs of impending trouble for both governess and charges make the air here thick with (dreadful!) possibilities. Questions about the children's backgrounds, Penelope's connections to them, and Lord Ashton's own wolfish behavior set the stage for the next act of this most excellent adventure." - Booklist (starred review) "Another series of uproarious escapades.

fans of the first book will be happy to go along for the madcap ride." - School Library Journal Praise for THE HIDDEN GALLERY (Book II): "[A] madcap sequel. Great fun, and it wouldn't be optoomuchstic to expect more to come." - Kirkus Reviews Praise for THE MYSTERIOUS HOWLING (Book I): "It's the best beginning since The Bad Beginning [by Lemony Snicket] and will leave readers howling for the next episode." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Jane Eyre meets Lemony Snicket in this smart, surprising satire of a 19th-century English governess story. Humorous antics and a climactic cliff-hanger ending will keep children turning pages and clamoring for the next volume, while more sophisticated readers will take away much more. Frequent plate-sized illustrations add wit and period flair." - School Library Journal (starred review) "How hearty and delicious.

Smartly written with a middle-grade audience in mind, this is both fun and sprinkled with dollops of wisdom (thank you, Agatha Swanburne). How will it all turn out? Appetites whetted." - Booklist (starred review) "With a Snicketesque affect, Wood's narrative propels the drama.pervasive humor and unanswered questions should have readers begging for more. " - Publishers Weekly (starred review).
