'McCaughrean is one of the greatest living children's authors.' The Bookseller

Brilliant historical fiction from double Carnegie Medal winner Geraldine McCaughrean

This collection of gripping historical short stories from award-winning author Geraldine McCaughrean has beautiful black-and-white illustrations by Ian McCaughrean and is perfect for children who are developing as readers.
