Mrs Vaughan recommends a book each week until the Library is open. Book is available on Borrow Box from North Ayrshire Libraries. For more information see their website.
This week’s recommendation is The House at the Edge of Magic by Amy Sparkes. 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 who’s particularly competitive at hopscotch – and a hideous troll housekeeper who’s 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.
Perfect for those who love fantasy with a huge dose of magic thrown in!
