LoveReading4Kids Says

Shortlisted for the 2012 Branford Boase Award for outstanding Debut novel and 2012 Carnegie Medal. 

The Carnegie judges said: A hugely engaging and enjoyable novel that conveys a terrific sense of place in its vivid descriptions of the brutality and terrible beauty of Australian outback life. The voice of the central character Danny is always convincing, and his relationship with his camel surprisingly moving. In fact so real are all the characters that they leave the reader wanting to know more.

The Branford Boase judges said: A fabulous piece of writing. The voice was completely right and the writing doesn't falter.

A Lovereading4Kids 'Debut of the Year 2011'.

11+. A stunning coming-of-age story with a gripping Australian outback setting and a strong and interesting plot.  Danny’s life is in turmoil: his older brother has recently died in a freak accident; his sister is pregnant and won’t say who the father is. Danny observes the profound changes in his family and finds refuge in training a camel and introducing the newly arrived girl from England into the ways of the outback. Passionate about the farm and particularly the cattle mustering, Danny captures the danger and excitement of the farm while also observing his family with affection and some confusion. A debut novel to look out for.

Shortlisted for the North East Teenage Book Award and for the Coventry Inspiration Awards in the Simply The Book (age 14+) category.

Longlisted for the Southern Schools Book Award.
