Pages & Co: The Book Smugglers - Anna James
Tax included.
Milo Bolt lives on the Quip, a magical train that travels through Story. The train is owned by Milo's uncle, Horatio, a book smuggler.
When Horatio takes on a dangerous new job, he needs the help of Tilly Pages - and Tilly owes him a favour. But when a poisoned copy of The Wizard of Oz wreaks havoc the children must race against time to find a cure.
Their journey takes them to the Emerald City with Dorothy, rocketing on the unruly Quip, and eventually to Venice, in pursuit of the mysterious Alchemist.
The very essence of imagination, Story itself, may be in danger...
