Reviews

The emotions of real families have always been [McKay's] forte, but in this evocative novel she makes something fantastical happenSunday Times
This is magic without whimsy, a story about secrets and the power of books, with enough edge-of-the-seat moments to keep you hugging a cushion.Observer
A wonderful, sensitive depiction of the highs and lows experienced when trying to blend two families.The Times - Children's Books of the Year
The real pleasure of McKay's fiction lies in her eye for the everyday. There is always drama in her books, but she is too confident a writer to feel the need to shatter any teacups – and unusually for a children's author, many of her tales have no obvious villain.The Telegraph - Best Books of the Year
