Years ago Jeronicus Jangle, the famous toymaker, was betrayed by his apprentice, retreated into himself and rejected his loving daughter. Then his bright, talented granddaughter, Journey, has come to visit. Her curiosity and eagerness to understand her grandfather will stir things up – things someone wants to keep hidden. 

I haven’t seen the movie, but I need to. This movie novelization is fun by itself – a magical hero’s journey with twists and turns and love.The audiobook was provided by The King’s English Bookshop through libro.fm
