Looking for the perfect Christmas gift? Here’s a Tales Before Bedtime recommended bookish gift.
The Somerset Tsunami
by Emma Carroll
Perfect for KS2 & KS3
SOMERSET, 1616
A sinking boat…
A girl in disguise…
A disappearing sea…
When Fortune Sharpe carves a boat from a tree with her beloved brother, Jem, she’s only having a bit of fun. But now is not the time for a girl to be drawing attention to herself and she is sent away to find work dressed as a boy. Luckily a rich manor house is hiring.
Yet Barrow Hall’s inhabitants harbour dangerous secrets of their own, the suspicious owner is hunting witches, and the house itself is a little too close to the sea…
I would absolutely recommend ANYTHING written by Emma Carroll but this is her latest and it is just wonderful.
