The House With Chicken Legs Runs Away

£8.99

Don’t worry if you haven’t read the first one, this can absolutely be read without the knowledge of the first book as it is a story in its own right. Everything you needed to know from the first book is introduced right at the beginning. All Marinka’s life she has lived in the house with chicken legs running all over the world on magical adventures. But something is wrong with the house, and it runs away! Obviously Marinka chases after it with her friend Benjamin and a jackdaw named Jack, what ensues is a tremendously magical and exciting adventure. I am looking forward to sharing this with readers new to this author and fans alike as it is just fabulous.
