A scrappy maid must outsmart both palace nobles and gods in this laugh-out-loud, lush and lively young adult fantasy retelling of The Goose Girl.
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful, kind princess, and her wicked maid.
One day, the wicked maid stole the princess's face, and with it her name, her betrothed - everything. The princess had to toil away as a servant, while her maid lived like a queen.
When the maid was caught, she died for her crimes, and the princess lived happily ever after . . . or that is how the story has been told.
Now, it's time to hear the other side of the story . . .

Recenzii
Gorgeous prose, delicious magic
A wild, adventurous romp that will leave you breathless at every turn. Expect sharp edges balanced with delightful humor and good fun - but I'll warn you: Vanja will steal your heart
Margaret Owen has done it again, yanking me between surety and nail-biting anticipation the whole way
With Six of Crows and The Cruel Prince as readalikes, this will find an audience anywhere there are fantasy fans. Highly recommended and not to be missed
A lush and lively adventure replete with romance, revenge, and robbery
Owen flips the tale of the Goose Girl on its head for a breathlessly inventive, never-a-dull-moment adventure of found family and second (or fourth or fifth) chances. If you're not careful, it'll steal your heart, too
Masterpiece of storytelling... This is YA fantasy at its very best
Little Thieves really does have all the elements for a truly memorable fantasy fable. It's a book for anyone who loves classic fairytale retellings with hear-stealing characters and a thrilling cat-and-mouse adventure at its heart
Margaret Owen has written my favourite fantasy novel of 2021. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys fairy tales, murder mysteries, heists and clever twists
Fantasy fans will love this YA reimagining of Brothers Grimm classic Goose Girl
This book spools out a plot you think you've seen before but then delights in gleefully wrong-footing you. A perfectly delightful Picasso ... will leave you chock-full of joy
A great read for this time of year with curses and a range of terrifying creatures to keep you spooked to the end
A sparky and irreverent reimagining of Goose Girl, the German fairytale by the Brothers Grimm, Little Thieves is rich with detail and zippy dialogue... I wasn't prepared for quite how much I loved this book
Margaret Owen has clearly thrown all her ideas at the wall to see what sticks and, amazingly, not only have they stuck but they've formed a Picasso
Thrilling and laced with frightening magic and irreverent humour
