SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2021 COSTA CHILDREN'S BOOK AWARD SUNDAY TIMES
CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE WEEK 'A sophisticated magical tale, awash in
sinister villains and perplexing plights ... bursting with
invention' - Financial Times 'Dreamy and odd, yet razor sharp and
terrifying all rolled into one ... The Neverending Story and
Spirited Away and Coraline all rolled into one amazing story. If
you have fans of manga, fans of headstrong, flawed characters,
witty and brave sidekicks and truly gut-wrenching monsters then
this is the one for you. I can't recommend it enough.' - Lucas
Maxwell, School Librarian of the Year 'The story is every bit as
bizarre, brilliant, fantastical and exciting as I'd hoped.
Definitely one to watch out for' - Kiran Millwood Hargrave
__________________________ A thrilling tale of friendship and
courage - Maggie Blue, strongwilled and isolated, sees her enemy
from school taken through a window to a parallel world by one of
their teachers and determines to follow, whatever the cost. With
the help of irascible cat, Hoagy, they discover a world where
happiness is being stolen - and they must do everything they can
not to be caught up in its web of destruction. Maggie Blue is an
outsider, both at home and at school. She lives with her eccentric
aunt Esme, and has no friends other than the irascible Hoagy, a
stray cat who can talk to her. When Magge sees Ida, her foe from
school, being taken through a window to another world by one of
their teachers who has transformed into a wolf, she is determined
to save her, whatever the cost. But the dark world is full of
danger, a place where happiness is valued above all else, and
Maggie discovers that her role is far more important than anyone
could have guessed. A thrilling and gripping tale of friendship,
courage and the power of being yourself.
