vonAmy Sparkes

Genres: Kinderbuch
'Sometimes you are a whisper away from magic without even realizing it.' Nine is an orphan pickpocket determined to escape her life in the Nest of a Thousand Treasures. When she steals a house-shaped ornament from a mysterious woman¿s purse, she knocks on its tiny door and watches it grow into a huge, higgledy-piggeldy house. Inside she finds a host of magical and brilliantly funny characters, including Flabberghast ¿ a young wizard whös particularly competitive at hopscotch ¿ and a hideous troll housekeeper whös emotionally attached to his feather duster. They have been placed under an extraordinary spell, which they are desperate for Nine to break ¿ and if she can, maybe they can offer her a new life in return¿ 'A Diana Wynne Jones-ish adventure fizzing with imagination. Such fun ¿ I loved it!' ¿ Sinead O'Hart 'A wonder-filled book that revels in magic and mayhem.' ¿ Abi Elphinstone 'Wildly imaginative and relentlessly entertaining. It is a story like no other and I absolutely adored it!' ¿ David Walliams
