An orphan discovers the secret world of Gulliverā€™s Travels in this kids classic from the author of The Once and Future Kingā€”for readers ages 9-12.

ā€œOne of the finest, most magical and extraordinary childrenā€™s books ever written.ā€ ā€” Anne Fine, Childrenā€™s Laureate of Britain

Ten-year-old Maria, the orphaned mistress of Malplaquet, discovers the secret of her deteriorating estate . . . On a deserted island, in the temple nicknamed Mistress Mashamā€™s Repose, live the community ā€œThe Peopleā€ ā€”all only inches tall. With the help of her only friendā€”the absurdly erudite Professorā€”Maria soon learns this settlement is no less than the exiled kingdom of Lilliput first seen in Gulliverā€™s Travels.
 
Safely hidden for centuries, the Lilliputians are at first endangered by Mariaā€™s well-meaning but clumsy attempts to make their lives easierā€”but their situation grows ominous when they are discovered by Mariaā€™s greedy guardians, who look at The People and see only a bundle of money.
 
Hailed as ā€œone of the finest, most magical and extraordinary childrenā€™s books ever writtenā€ (Anne Fine, Childrenā€™s Laureate of Britain), Mistress Mashamā€™s Repose has enchanted young readers for over 7 decades.
