The story house - Vivian French

Mum and Julius, Tia and Tim the twins, Jason, Daisy B, Ross and Grannie Annie all live in the house full of stories. So do their pets: dogs, cats, Roly the rat, goldfish and gerbils abound. Little Ghost and Big Ghost live there too. Every week Little Ghost flits in to see Big Ghost and to hear a new story about what's been going on. Some of the stories are about the family and their daily lives and some are about the other inhabitants of the story house - the mice who live under the floorboards, the creepy-crawlies in the garden and the toys that come alive at night. There is also the 'kitten with no name' who finds out just who he is by the end of the book.

Packed to the brim with child friendly, appealing stories from a popular author and exuberantly illustrated by star artist Selina Young, this is a perfect gift package that children will want to return to again and again.
