 Kiddult Fiction - The Demon Headmaster
The story is concerned with a school whose pupils who are under the hypnotic power of the wicked headmaster, and the new arrival of a girl into a family of boys who are not affected by his mesmerising stare, and who embark on a daring plan to ruin his plan for world domination!
Cross uses supportive detail to make the story seem possible - the headmaster uses a pin prick to verify that the child is indeed hypnotised and not just pretending, something which catches Dinah out when she attempts to discover what happens in the secret school assemblies.
I may not have been alerted to this if Cross had not mentioned '1984' during the story and at the climax, but at the mention of the title the parallel was immediately apparent.

Dinah starts a new school and on the first day she constantly felt sleepy when she was face to face with the Headmaster.This carried on through school time and the school itself was very strange to her because the children and the teachers all acted to well behaved - almost like they had been programmed.
She finds out that the Headmaster is hypnotising the staff and pupls.The book continues with Dinah's efforts to stop the Headmaster both in school and in the outside world.
It was written in a style that kept me in suspense and unable to put the book down as I could not wait to find out what happened next.
