“Winner of the Nestle 10-12 year olds prize.
This author also does adult fiction too.
Good read and in places hard hitting, death, murder and then back to easy for 11 year olds.
Orphan siblings have to stay with distant Aunt in Norway. You guessed it she lives on the edge of The Shadow Forest, where the evil ruler is stealing everyone’s shadows. I liked it.
Score 6/10
