   Additional Information  
 
  When their parents go to America for the summer, Madlyn and Rollo are sent to their Great-Aunt Emily and Uncle George at Clawstone Castle, home of the famous and mysterious Wild White Cattle of Clawstone Park. Unfortunately, the castle and herd upkeep has become too much for Emily and George to manage. Determined to save the herd, Madlyn and Rollo audition a cast of ghosts to add some thrills to the castle tours. Once the haunted headliners are in place, things go swimmingly—until a rival estate cow-naps the cattle. Then it’s up to the kids and their ghostly friends to rescue the cattle and bring Clawstone back to its glorious state.
