About the Author
Liz Baddaley lives a life surrounded by words, whether they're for the children's novels she has begun to create, or for the leading UK charities she writes for. Liz was born in St Albans and read English at Christ Church, Oxford, but is now most likely to be found tapping away at her laptop with a pot of tea, or exploring Ilkley's famous moor - singing along to her iPod and desperately trying to keep up with Rabbit the dog.
Reviews
Unusual and thought-provoking. * www.parentsintouch.co.uk *
An exciting and page-turning read which will keep the reader guessing until the last page. -- Gabby, Bookseller for the Children's Department of Blackwells, Oxford
Magical and heart-warming * Irish Examiner *
In her debut novel, Liz Baddaley addresses this issue (loss) with beautiful sensitivity and remarkable empathy...gradually and credibly introduces a strand of realism to the narrative. -- Helen Mulley * Teach Primary *
As well as dealing with death and bereavement which could be gloomy and Gothic, there is an amusing, mystery element which draws the reader in and makes this book...eminently suitable for reading aloud. * The School Librarian *
A heart-warming story of love, loss and redemption. The author...writes with a simplicity and depth of emotion that places her firmly in the tradition of Frances Hodgson Burnett and E. Nesbit. Charming and insightful. * Salts Mill Bookshop *
