Description

Are you ready to rediscover The Nowhere Emporium? Ross MacKenzie's beloved, Blue Peter award-winning fantasy adventure has been capturing young readers' imaginations for over a decade! Now loyal fans and new readers alike can explore the magical Emporium like never before, in this stunning new illustrated hardback edition.

When the mysterious Nowhere Emporium arrives in Glasgow, orphan Daniel Holmes stumbles upon it quite by accident. Before long, the 'shop from nowhere' and its owner, Mr Silver, draw Daniel into a breathtaking world of magic and enchantment.

With the help of Mr Silver's daughter Ellie, Daniel explores the Emporium's vast labyrinth of passageways and rooms -- rooms that contain wonders beyond anything Daniel has ever imagined. But when Mr Silver disappears, and a shadow from the past threatens everything, the Emporium and all its wonders begin to crumble.

Can Daniel and Ellie save their home, and their friends, before the Nowhere Emporium is destroyed forever?
This modern classic has been reimagined for a new generation with magical, atmospheric illustrations by Mariano Epelbaum. A unique die-cut hardback design invites readers to open the door and step inside the fantastical shop from nowhere. Just bring your imagination!
