The Trapdoor Mysteries: A Sticky Situation: Book 1 - Tapa blanda

Críticas

A delightful story, infused with playful magic, hilarious villains and a wonderful heroine (Abi Elphinstone, author of The Shadow Keeper)

Charmingly illustrated by James Brown, this is a delightful story, full of imagination and peopled with a good cast of characters who come alive through their conversations. (Parents in Touch)

In this magical adventure story, a feisty heroine refuses to have her destiny decided by her humble circumstances. Tally is an engaging character who is brave, intelligent and determined to succeed (Book Trust)

Tally and Squill is my new favourite book ... I like that even though Tally is the smallest in the whole house she is the cleverest. (Ellen, age 6 Primary Times)

Reseña del editor

If you wanted to find Tally you would have to go down the hall...down the spiral staircase...
into the kitchens...and then find the scullery.

Ten-year-old Tally is a servant girl at Mollett Manor. She sleeps in the scullery sink, and spends her days scrubbing, polishing and ironing (when she's not secretly reading books). Then Tally and her squirrel friend, Squill, find a secret library hidden under the manor - a magical library where the books come to life! When Mollett Manor is burgled, can Tally use the knowledge she finds in the books to catch the criminals? Can they even help her solve the mystery of her missing mother?
