Birdlands
From Carnegie-winning author Anthony McGowan comes another thrilling and heartbreaking animal adventure. An unlikely flock. The adventure of a lifetime. Life can be tough when you’re a bird, especially for Beaky, Herman and Pidge.
With the young jackdaw’s twisted beak, the crow’s broken wing and the pigeon’s fear of flying, survival seems impossible. Until, that is, they band together. The trio set out into the wild, leaving the city far behind.
But danger lurks at every turn… Will the three birds ever find a place they can call home?
Pike
Family bonds are tested when a fishing expedition nosedives into near tragedy in this second Truth of Things novella from Carnegie Medal winner Anthony McGowan. When Nicky spots a glint of gold down in the murky depths of Bacon Pond, he can't ignore it. It could mean money for his family, and money helps patch things up when you haven't got any.
But sometimes it's better not to look too deep. Not when there are local gangsters involved and tough questions about your family's past. Nicky knows it's a bad idea to go back – it could ruin everything.
But if he can't leave it alone, will the secrets of Bacon Pond drag them all down?
