A hilarious, swashbuckling adventure for siblings everywhere!

*Shortlisted for the Cumbrian Primary Schools Spellbinding Award*

George isn’t good at anything much. In fact, he’s pretty average. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t have BIG ambitions, they are just harder to achieve when your big sister, Jess, is brilliant at everything!

Then George inherits a mansion from dear old Mrs Smallbone. Except Hogweed Hall isn’t your average mansion. It’s BRILLIANT, and full of fascinating tenants like Boris the dog, an unusual pastry chef who lives in the basement, a mysterious scientist who works in the attic, and lots and lots of chickens! 

But Mrs Smallbone’s sisters aren’t at all happy about the situation, and invite themselves to stay. They’re after something, and don’t intend to leave without it.

Can George stop them before it’s too late?

  • Perfect for fans of Pamela Butchart, Sam Copeland and David Solomons.
  • Beautifully illustrated and brought to life by illustrator Isabelle Follath.
