I think this book is good because it has ghosts. There is a dragon that eats coal, and is very droopy. There are secret stairs, mishaps and weather in this book. The Mr. Majeika series is funny, a bit scary (and I like that !), and magical.
Mr. Majeika and the Ghost Train (Kestrel Kites)

The eighth book about the school teacher/magician, Mr Majeika. This time, it is one complete novel rather than short stories.
