My copy of this book is a discard from our library and it confuses me because on the spine there is a little sticker that says “Mystery” complete with ghost and candle.

Is it because mystery and history rhyme and they mixed up the stickers?

Or if I was still a young adult and hadn’t read this book a pile of times would there be a mystery to solve?

I can’t figure it out, but if I ignore the sticker I like the rest of the book mystery or not.  I think I read this first as a Battle of the Books book and it’s somehow found it’s way onto my book shelf.

Would I recommend it? Yes, while I enjoy it now I loved it when I was younger.
