Ava is hiding - hiding from the small cramped room where she lives with her two little siblings and her mum, hiding from the taunts and hostility she gets at school, hiding from her sometimes lonely and joyless life. But there is love here too. Her best friend Roxy, her wise Trinidadian Nan and a stray dog she befriends.
Can Ava be brave enough to allow some light to shine into the darkest part of her being? Moving, emotive and poignant, Coral Rumble's poetic novel is a compellingly beautiful read.
Coral Rumble is one of Troika's most popular poets: in 2018 she won The Caterpillar Poetry Prize. Coral has had three collections published, Creatures, Teachers and Family Features , Breaking the Rules , and My Teacher's as Wild as a Bison . She has also contributed to around 150 anthologies for children.
Michael Rosen has commented, 'Rumble has a dash and delight about her work'
