The Rescue of Ravenwood : From Costa Award-Winning author of Voyage of the Sparrowhawk
Adventure, Must-Haves for Year 6, Our FavouritesFrom the Costa Award winning author of Voyage of the Sparrowhawk comes an epic adventure with a call to arms: we must fight to save the most treasured things on our planet. On the top of the hill, overlooking the sea, that’s where you’ll find a magical place . .
. To Bea and Raffy, Ravenwood is home. In its own way, the house rescued them, even if it did have a fallen-down tree taking up most of the kitchen.
So the idea that it could be sold. Demolished even. Well, that’s unthinkable.
Then again, it’s not like the children get a choice. But the truth is, we can all make our own choices, especially if we care enough . .
. A beautiful, soulful, exciting story about holding onto what’s precious, and guarding the extraordinary nature that surrounds us. Praise for Natasha:’Compelling, joyous, tear-jerking and delightful.’ The Sunday Times’A modern classic.’ Guardian’It deserves prizes.’ New Statesman

Nika –
One of the loveliest books I’ve read in quite a while. The children in the story swore that they will have an unforgetable summer and by the end of the book you know that this came true. One child becomes a stowaway, one meets his long lost grandmother and the third accepts her extended family – and in the process they manage to save their beloved Ravenwood and the big ash Ygg from developers, and they have a marevllous time doing it.
A book about friendship and belonging, about protecting what’s dear to us and not going down without a fight.
Every child wishes to have a proper summer adventure and this book will transport you to one of those!
This must-read is suitable for anyone from 9 to eternity.
