A stunning, fully-illustrated story from the Costa Award-winning author of Asha & the Spirit Bird - perfect for readers 9 and up this Christmas.
Eleven-year-old Swallow lives with her tribe in prehistoric England. Storytelling by the fireside is part of life, and she loves listening to ancient tales of courage and adventure.
When Swallow's baby sister falls ill, she sets off with her friend Ishi on a dangerous journey to find the cure: a precious jadeite stone of legend.
Across seas and mountains, Swallow's quest leads her through wonder and terror - all the while guided by a starlight path and the spirit of a sabretooth tiger.
Can she find the stone and save her sister?
