  1. 1. Rooftoppers by Katherine Rundell

    In this enchanting tale, a young orphan girl, discovered as a baby in a cello case after a shipwreck, is raised by an eccentric scholar. When authorities threaten to take her away, believing no proper lady could be raised by a single man, the pair flee to Paris. There, the girl is drawn to the rooftops of the city, where she meets a gang of children who traverse the skyline. With their help, she embarks on a whimsical adventure to search for her long-lost mother, guided by the belief that if her mother was alive, she would be playing her cello. The story weaves a magical journey of hope, friendship, and the unyielding bond between a child and her guardian, set against the backdrop of the beautiful and mysterious Parisian rooftops.
