The right book might just change your life …
Mim Cohen roams the world in a travelling bookshop, with her dad and brother and a horse called Flossy.
Flossy leads them where she will, to the place where they’re needed most … the place where the perfect book will find its way home.
Now Mim has arrived in thrilling Norway — the land of mountains and fjords, Vikings and trolls, friendly folk and cuddly sheep, and one super-greedy apple thief. Norbert the fruit farmer is desperate. If the thief is not stopped, his farming days will end.
Mim knows they’re here to help Norbert. To solve the mystery of the vanishing apples. To save the farm.
If only Mim could find Norbert the right book. If only Dad would stop giving everyone the wrong book.
The entrancing new adventure from award-winning author Katrina Nannestad and beloved illustrator Cheryl Orsini.
