What this book is about

The third Howl's Moving Castle novel follows Charmain Baker, a bookish girl who has never done household magic in her life, who is sent to care for her great-uncle's extraordinary house while he recovers from illness. The house has doors that lead to unexpected places. Jones writes with her characteristic invention and humor; Howl and Sophie appear midway through. Appropriate for all ages.
