All children dream of having a secret house where they can live on their own, far from any rules and regulations.

Inventively illustrated by Quentin Blake, Aglaia’s adventures – and her battles with the gruff Signor Brullo and the woodmen who want to cut down the tree – are sure to enchant and inspire the imagination of every child.
