Aglaia lives at the top of a magical tree, together with her friend Bianca and an incredible host of flying dogs, talking cats, carnivorous flowers and children who speak in verse.
Pitzorno is one of Italy's bestselling children's authors, and this is the first time her work has been translated into English (by Stephen Parkin); and there are illustrations by Quentin Blake, no less.
