This is a fantasy novel. The background of this story is happened in a hidden island where lives Aunt Etta, Aunt Coral, and Aunt Myrtle. They need to care other creatures who live on this island, but the adults can't be trust, so they get an idea that they can kidnap children who can keep secret. What an interesting thing is: some kids are planned to be kidnapped.

They leave the island to search for proper children. The first child called Minette, who was ten years old. Her parents were divorced, so she need to made journeys usually between London and Edinburgh where her dad and mom live. Etta is her aunt, and she prepare to kidnap Minette on the train by using sandwiches she made.

Aunt Coral is going to kidnap Hubert-Henry Mountjoy from his grandparents' London house. In the kidnapping process, the boy always look at her in an unfriendly expression.

Although I only read to chapter 2, it's story is very interesting that I am very happy I find a book I like to read so much.
