長腳的房子

內容簡介

內容簡介 顛覆常理的房子，與你一同探討愛、友誼、悲傷與勇氣 12歲的Marinka住的房子很特別，她的房子有著一對雞腳！而且這棟房子很特別，玩鬼抓人或捉迷藏都難不倒它！但對Marinka來說，最大的願望，就是能擁有朋友，一個「真正」的朋友。一個可以陪伴Marinka的人，一個可以跟Marinka說說話，分享秘密的朋友。 你一定會想，交個朋友哪裡有什麼困難？但如果你的奶奶是Yaga，一名亡靈守護者，而你住在一間因為奶奶職務所需，無時無刻徘徊於世界各地的房子，那交不交得到朋友，可就不能以一般常理來判斷了！而更令Marinka難過的，是她也要受訓成為一名Yaga，也就是說，Marinka將不會有正常的學校生活、和朋友一同參加派對的時光，或是真的擁有一名可以整天黏在一起，互相扶持的好友。 但當Marinka在一個偶然的機會下，交到了一名朋友，而交了這名朋友的代價，也就是Marinka違反了所有規定，而奶奶也因此無故失蹤，而Marinka也因為這樣，需要在死後的世界，尋找奶奶的下落，而這趟旅行，肯定不會只是一場校外教學… All 12-year-old Marinka wants is a friend. A real friend. Not like her house with chicken legs. Sure, the house can play games like tag and hide-and-seek, but Marinka longs for a human companion. Someone she can talk to and share secrets with. But that's tough when your grandmother is a Yaga, a guardian who guides the dead into the afterlife. It's even harder when you live in a house that wanders all over the world . . . carrying you with it. Even worse, Marinka is being trained to be a Yaga. That means no school, no parties--and no playmates that stick around for more than a day. So when Marinka stumbles across the chance to make a real friend, she breaks all the rules . . . with devastating consequences. Her beloved grandmother mysteriously disappears, and it's up to Marinka to find her--even if it means making a dangerous journey to the afterlife.
