What's a girl to do when her house won't go home? Bella and the Voyaging House continues the adventurous story that began in Bella and the Wandering House.

Bella's house has a mind of its own, setting sail across the ocean while everyone sleeps. Bella's parents don't mind, as long as the house returns by daylight. One moonlit evening, Bella is inspired with a wonderful idea for her grandfather's birthday: she wishes to recover a figurine he crafted of her grandmother, which was lost overboard in an accident.

Determined, Bella and her house set out on this unique quest. However, the journey takes an unexpected turn and things don't quite go according to plan…
