From Hereabout Hill

A beautiful and magical collection of short stories by an author who writes like a dream. By turns gritty and gripping, spooky and funny, they will enchant Morpurgo’s many fans. Sofia is late for school when she sees tanks arrive in the village square. She manages to hide, only to witness horrific events… An abandoned owlet seems to be on the road to recovery when it is rescued and fed. But why is a large ginger cat so interested? And when a young Canadian comes to Britain to visit his ancestral home, who is the strange old man he meets at the house?
