There is only one rule: kill or be killed.
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV… And the odds are against all who play.
'A joyously animal-packed adventure.' - Hilary McKay, Costa
Award-winning author of The Skylark's War In 1946, Rosa Sweetman, a
young Kindertransport girl, is longing for her family to claim her.
The war in Europe is over and she is the only child left at
Westwood, a rambling country estate in the north of England, where
she'd taken refuge seven years earlier. The arrival of a friend of
the family, Yara Fielding, starts an adventure that will take Rosa
deep into the lush beauty of the Amazon rainforest in search of
jaguars, ancient giant sloths and somewhere to belong. What she
finds is Yara's lively, welcoming family on the banks of the river
and, together, they face a danger greater than she could ever have
imagined. Featuring places and characters known and loved by fans
of Journey to the River Sea (including, among others, Maia, Finn,
Miss Minton and Clovis) this spectacular story tells of the next
generation and the growing threats to the Amazon rainforest that
continue to this day.
