Discover that books can take you places you'd never believe... from Waterstones Prize-shortlisted Robert Starling.

Astrid's family has just moved into the mouse hole in the bookshop on Maple Street, and none of her new classmates believes the incredible adventures she has with her family. But when she invites each of them to the bookshop, they'll see that there is a big, exciting world of possibilities there, just waiting to be discovered.

Former teacher Robert Starling shows us the incredible places books can take us.

About the Author

Rob Starling began doodling creatures and characters at school and hasn't stopped since. He lives and works in Wiltshire, and when he's not sketching up new characters or writing down stories he can be found sculpting, brewing coffee, adjusting his headphones or foraging in the kitchen for cake. Fergal is Fuming, which was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Award, was his first book.
