Reviews
'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 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... The story is told amazingly 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... 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... It is funny, with moments that are very suspenseful.'
-- Sharon the Librarian blog
'Daniela is a very descriptive writer and has a wonderful knack of bringing every setting alive ... I really enjoyed reading this book, it was a delightful read for the child hidden within. If you haven't read a book by Daniela Sacerdoti, then you are sadly missing out.
-- Serendipity Reviews
'I think this book is amazing. It's sense of action and fantasy has truth at its middle, echoing our own feelings and lives too, making it a better book all together... This story is suitable for any age, as long as you like action, adventure and quite a lot of fun!'
-- The Guardian Children's Books
'My 10-year old found this a great read and interesting... in his words, the weirdness is awesome.'
