Lauren St John recommends
Impossible Creatures (2023)
(Impossible Creatures, book 1)
Katherine Rundell
"Katherine Rundell is a prodigiously gifted storyteller and IMPOSSIBLE CREATURES is wildly good. Spectacularly inventive, it is both a thrilling and page-turning epic and a clarion call to young readers to use the special gifts of childhood- love, courage, imagination and open-heartedness - to fight to save precious creatures of all kinds before they vanish before our eyes. My Book of the Year."
Team Magic (2015)
(Tilly's Horse, Magic)
Pippa Funnell
"Fab storytelling from a top rider who knows horses inside out."
