‘This book gripped me like a great hawk in its talons and didn’t let me go … utterly phenomenal’ – Zillah Bethell, author of The Shark Caller

A desperate village. A child who emerges from the marshes. A falcon that helps her save them all.

The child – if child it was – came out of the wild-ness. It came out of the sparse bleak marsh where few dared go and none came back. And though the village grew accustomed to the creature they did not forget from whence it came. And they whispered that there was no knowing whether she was sent as a blessing or a bane.’

Sidesplitting middle grade comedy, with serious heart (and one very funny llama). Illustrated by Allen Fatimaharan, the official illustrator for World Book Day 2022.

Shortlisted for the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize

Winner of a Made for Mums Gold Award
