Description

Becket Rumsey is all at sea.His dad has run away with him and his brother Billy in the middle of the night. And they've left everything behind, including their almost-mum Pearl. Becket has no idea what's going on - it's a mystery.So with the help of Billy and a snail called Brian, Becket sets out on a journey of discovery. It's not plain sailing, but then what journeys ever are?A story of new beginnings, and learning that goodbye isn't always the end, from the bestselling author of A Boy Called Hope.

Author Biography:

Lara's debut novel, A Boy Called Hope has been shortlisted for lots of prizes, including the Waterstones Children's Book Prize and the IBW Book Award, and won the Sheffield Children's Book Award 2015 and the Salford Children's Book Award 2016. Her second novel, The Boy Who Sailed the Ocean in an Armchair, was shortlisted for the Blue Peter Book Awards and nominated for the Carnegie Medal. Lara was born and studied in Northern Ireland, before moving to London. She loves tap-dancing, daydreaming, eating chips, wearing glitter and writing. Not necessarily in that order.
