If the prospect of a prequel to Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights won't exactly set most kids' hearts aflutter, the chilling jacket illustration of a pale girl without eyes might do the trick. Eleven-year-old Tabby Aykroyd (modeled after the real-life servant of the Brontës, who allegedly told the sisters many a terrifying tale) is hired out to Seldom House, a moody estate in need of a nursemaid for the new master, a feisty young boy (Heathcliff of Wuthering Heights). Ghosts are afoot in Seldom House, but that doesn't flap the unflappable Tabby.
