As announced on BookBrunch and The Bookseller, I am thrilled to share the news of a two-book deal for Mike Revell's middle grade debut, STONEBIRD.
‘There’s
a demon living inside Grandma, eating her from the inside out.’
This is the quote I always use when talking about STONEBIRD,
as it says so much about how Liam, the main character, feels about his
grandmother's disease. Much of this story
is based on Mike’s real life experience, but although it deals with the difficult
issue of dementia, it is also an uplifting book about friendship and the magic
of storytelling. I’m so proud to represent Mike and his writing.
