The House at the Edge of Magic : An instant New York Times bestseller. Hilarious and heartwarming magical middle grade adventure - for readers age 8-10

A funny and fast-paced middle grade fantasy adventure, packed full of zany humour and memorable characters, perfect for fans of Nevermoor and Greenwild. "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 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… "A Diana Wynne Jones-ish adventure fizzing with imagination.
