A visit to Grandmother's house has never been so frightening... Charlie and Georgie Oughtt have been sent to visit their grandmother Pearl, and this troubles Charlie for three reasons. The first is that he's an exceptionally nervous 12-year-old boy and he worries about everything. The second is that the other children in his neighborhood who pay visits to their grandmothers never seem to return. And the third is that Charlie and Georgie don't "have" any grandmothers. Upon their arrival, all of Charlie's concerns are confirmed, as Grandmother Pearl quickly reveals herself to be something much more gruesome than even Charlie's most outlandish fears could have predicted. Charlie and the Grandmothers (Alfred A. Knopf) is Katy Towell's new novel for middle readers.
