The Armitage family has the best of all worlds. Life is generally predictable six days a week, but strange things are prone to happen on Mondays: unicorns arrive, witches threaten, and Furies appear, just to name a few. These twenty-four linked tales featuring Harriet, Mark, their delightfully broad-minded parents, and assorted quirky relatives is a trove of succinct and distinctly British adventures.
