LoveReading4Kids Says

Chosen by Rob Biddulph, Guest Editor September 2022, as one of his top recommendations"This was published a few years ago, but Katherine’s books are such favourites in the Biddulph household that I felt the need to tell you about them just in case, for some strange reason, you’ve not read one. I could have chosen any of her titles, but I’ve gone for Rooftoppers because my daughter Poppy told me it was her favourite. It tells the story of Sophie, who as a baby was found floating in a cello case in the middle of the English Channel, and her rescuer (and subsequent father figure) Charles Maxim. His parenting methods might be fairly unorthodox – chips and a drop of whiskey for tea, anyone? – but there is no doubting the love he has for his ward. Their relationship only serves as a backdrop to the main storyline, but it is the bedrock to which the book’s emotional heart is anchored. Trust me, if you read this book you will love it, and become as big a fan of Katherine’s as we are."
