Mim and the Vicious Vendetta (The Travelling Bookshop, #5)
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 wonderful Venice, city of canals, palaces, bridges, boats and ... quarrels. Gondolier battles, cat-nappings and laundry theft are just the beginning. The Magnifico family and the Forte family are at war.
Mim knows they're here to help the feuding families. To show them a better way to behave. To bring an end to the vicious vendetta.
If only Mim could find each of them the right book. If only they'd all stop reading the wrong books.
The lively new adventure from award-winning author Katrina Nannestad and beloved illustrator Cheryl Orsini.
