I thought my 7 year old would like this. I really enjoyed it, it's obviously a children's book but it's got some quite complicated themes - orphans, pickpockets - but is a lovely story of magic, families, found family and libraries!

This such a funny little book, and I enjoyed it even as an adult. It is charmingly odd and very lively (and reminds me of Diana Wynn Jones which I say as high regards)!

A sweet, fun and silly story. If I was 8 years old again, I would have eaten this up!
