The house at the edge of magic [sound recording] / Amy Sparkes.

Sparkes, Amy, (author.). Sanderson, Charlie, (narrator.).

Summary:

Nine is an orphan pickpocket determined to escape her life in the Nest of a Thousand Treasures. When she lifts a house-shaped ornament from a mysterious woman's purse, she knocks on its tiny door and watches it grow into a huge, higgledy-piggledy building. Inside, Nine meets the eccentric people who call the magical house their home. For years, they have been desperate to end the curse on the house that prevents them from leaving. With the promise of a life-changing reward in the balance, Nine sets her street smarts against bats with acid dung, a burping sugar bowl, and worse as she uncovers more about the curse, and herself.
