These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. To escape the bombs falling on London, Carrie and her younger brother Nick are evacuated from their home to a small Welsh village where they are taken in by the village grocer, Mr Evans, who's mean and unfriendly, and his timid sister, Lou. The children befriend another evacuee, Albert, who seems to have had more luck. He lives at a mysterious house called Druid's Bottom where he's looked after by the housekeeper, Hepzibah Green. The children are entranced by Hepzibah's magical stories, including one about the curse of the screaming skull. And it's this story that leads Carrie to do something she regrets for the rest of her life...
