About this listen

High Manners Manor creaks and groans as old houses do-but this is no ordinary house. In the dark, specters hiss, ghosts grumble, and skeleton boy Billy Bones and his family file the Biglum family's deepest secrets in a locked and hidden closet. When Billy makes his first human friend, Millicent Biglum, the real adventure begins.

In the tradition of filmmaker Tim Burton, Christopher creates a richly-imaginative, spooky adventure where friendships bloom, betrayals linger, schemes entangle-and heroism appears in the most unexpected places.

Critic reviews

"Full of creatively descriptive language, this delightful story moves along rapidly, bordering on but never crossing into campy." ( School Library Journal)
All stars

Would you listen to Billy Bones: Tales from the Secrets Closet again? Why?

Sure. The main character is engaging, the narrator is very good and the story is a real original.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Billy, of course, but there are so many entertaining characters it's hard to pick. Okay, I'll go with a few - Billy's friend Millicent, Dame Biglum, and Glass-Eyed Pete the pirate. They are all feisty and fun.

Any additional comments?

Peter Bishop's reading is a dead ringer for Neil Gaiman, which is weird! His voice and accent are eerily like Mr. G's.

A great book for kids who like "not too spooky"
