Wow wow wow! She’s arrived! I wasn’t expecting to see Auntie Medusa quite so soon but she landed on my doormat this morning in all her glorious colours and has taken my breath away! Thank you so much to the wonderful team at Chicken House for doing me proud again. With cover illustration by the amazing Flavia Sorrentino and design by Steve Wells, I think this is my most beautiful book yet!

About Auntie Medusa and Me
An action-packed, laugh-out-loud funny Greek mythology adventure from the author of My Family and Other Romans!
Hiya! I’m Silvia, an ordinary kid just like you.
At least, I was ordinary until I wound up in Ancient Rome as a demi-goddess. Yeah, that took me by surprise too. But seriously, travelling back in time is nothing compared to what’s happening now: Medusa the gorgon wants her head back – and she’s chosen me to find it!
