Mimi, Coconut, the rescue pup, George, Neemie, Sally, and Rabon have landed 'across the pond,' where fries are chips, biscuits are cookies, and the fog is as thick as pea soup. Welcome to London, England!
With four mysteries under their belt, the kids from the Spanish Moss School don't bat a 'London Eye' at Mimi's promise that THIS would be the spookiest library that they'd ever visited. Little do they know, the whole city of London is thought to be haunted, but they'll find out soon enough in The Ghostly Mystery at the British Library!
Following an exhausting tour of the British Library, Mimi challenges the kids to a scavenger hunt, sending them in four different directions through the cavernous rooms of the British Museum, filled with 8 million artifacts. As they each embark on their own search, from the Elgin Marbles to the Rosetta Stone, they uncover the museum's ancient treasures—each more fascinating (and sometimes terrifying) than the last. After solving all their clues, they're met with an even bigger mystery… Mimi is missing!
Like all good detectives, these kids won't give up! They'll have to pull together and put their sleuthing talents to the test to find Mimi, solve the mystery, and find a way out of the library - all in time for a breakfast… fit for a Queen.

“I love to share historic and possibly very spooky places with young readers. If you take a kid to the British Library (and the British Museum), they will discover the most amazing things and experience the most amazing feelings. It’s one thing to read about such places and another to visit them. I love graphic novels because they are so show-and-tell! I love to leave kids wanting MORE!” - Carole Marsh
