A wonderful collection of new stories from the bestselling creators of The Fairy Dancers and The Tales of Mrs Mancini On rainy afternoons, when it’s too wet to play outside after school, Ben goes to his grandfather’s bookshop. But with secret doors and passages, and tigers under the floorboards, there’s much more going on than Ben could ever have imagined. PRAISE FOR THE FAIRY DANCERS VOLUMES 1 AND 2 : ‘ The Fairy Dancers is simply stunning — production quality is awesomeness, making it the perfect keepsake gift book, the illustrations by Cheryl Orsini are exquisite and Natalie’s writing, as always, shines and sparkles’ — Children’s Books Daily ‘This book is perfect for children who want more of a reading challenge than a picture book provides, but may not yet be ready for a complete chapter book. It’s beautiful to both read and look at’ — The Daily Telegraph
