This is the cover of Household Lore by Liza Frank. It is a dark midnight sky full of stars. There is a three story purple house with trees growing either side and an owl on a turret. The garden is full of flowers and there is a crooked path to confuse fairies.
Right then! π¨ To celebrate publication of my new book Household Lore on 11 November, I'm doing a special Folklore Agony household edition! Are you experiencing a problem in your house that conventional wisdom (and cleaning solutions) have failed to solve? Why not ask the Folklore Agony Aunt? 1/2
