Description
Beneath the floorboards and behind the walls of an old English house live the Borrowers, tiny people who survive by 'borrowing' the necessities they need from the human 'human beans.' For generations, they have lived in secret, unseen and unheard, their existence a carefully guarded myth. But when their hidden world is discovered, a young Borrower named Arrietty and her family are forced to flee their home, embarking on a perilous journey into the unknown. This classic tale explores themes of survival, courage, and the delicate balance between different worlds, all told with Mary Norton's signature charm and imaginative detail.
