About This Book

Beneath the floorboards of an English house live the Clock family — Pod, Homily, and their daughter Arrietty — tiny people who survive by 'borrowing' items from the human inhabitants. When Arrietty is discovered by a boy, their secret world is threatened and they must decide whether to stay or flee.
