About the Book

Shortlisted for the Scottish Children's Book Award 2013 Mischievous fairies? Stranded mermaids? Smelly troll? Whatever your supernatural dilemma, call the Really Weird Removals company! Luca and Valentina's uncle Alistair is a paranormal investigator. When he realises the children can see the supernatural creatures that share our world, he invites them to join his team. With the help of Camilla, a friendly ghost, the Really Weird Removals team save a real-life stranded Nessie, help a selkie come ashore, and befriend werewolves. But this exciting new world is also packed with danger. When confronted by malicious kelpies and hungry vampires, can their wayward uncle keep the children safe?

About the Author :
Daniela Sacerdoti comes from Italy but has been living in Scotland for ten years and considers herself adopted. She was a primary school teacher and has been writing since she can remember. She lives with her husband and two sons. Her first adult novel Watch Over Me was published by Black and White in 2011, and her young adult novel, Sarah Midnight, will be published in 2012. Her ambition is to write many, many more books of the kind that you've got to keep reading way past your bedtime, under the covers, with a little book light and a packet of sweets.

Review :
'Delightfully old fashioned, but at the same time utterly contemporary. Warm, witty and more than a little scary. Like Enid Blyton with the Internet!' -- Jonathan Meres, author of The World of Norm 'This book is so enjoyable, with a wonderfully quirky family and great characters. I loved the paranormal database at the beginning of each chapter, and it gets into the story right from the first chapter. I can't see how this book won't be a great success.' -- Catherine MacPhail, author of Nemesis 'Swings effortlessly between scary and funny, like Dracula doing stand-up. Really Weird, yes, but also Really Good.' -- Barry Hutchinson, author of The 13th Horseman 'This is a great family read, both for the grown ups who want to be transported back to their childhood, or for the child having it read aloud on a dark winter's evening. It could even work as a book to share with a class ... The story is told amazing well -- it will have your imagination stretched to the very fullest ... The story is both funny and poignant. It is brimming with the full flavour of a Scottish adventure. Family life and folklore all collide into one memorable story. I'm pleased to say that I enjoyed both aspects very much. The fast paced story and character driven plot will have you wanting much much more.' -- Mr Ripley's Enchanted Books 'I recommend Really Weird Removals.com to middle grade readers that crave adventure, and enjoy supernatural and fantasy based tales. Readers that have enjoyed books like the Sisters Grimm series will particularly connect with the story. It is funny, with moments that are very suspenseful.' -- Sharon the Librarian blog
