For the first time, all twenty-four of Joan Aiken's stories about the Armitage family are assembled in one volume. Set in and around British suburbs, Aiken's stories follow the escapades of young Harriet and Mark Armitage. The children, always engaged in high adventure, find a unicorn in the garden, restrain disobedient robots, struggle with a cursed Egyptian mask, and more-much to their parents' chagrin. This collection includes four previously unpublished stories as well as Aiken's prelude to the series. Introductions by Lizza Aiken and Garth Nix. Black-and-white illustrations.
