‘Let’s go on an adventure!’
Granda says to Emily.

Stepping out from their special wee place at the bottom of the garden, Granda and Emily find themselves on bustly city streets, at a roaring waterfall and in a crumbling castle. As they visit all Granda’s favourite places,
they become Emily’s favourites too.

Let Emily and Granda show you the magic of their Northern Ireland!

A wildly heartfelt timeslip adventure that takes readers back to the Stone Age to explore themes of family, courage, loss and what it means to be human.

Charlie lives in modern times, but after hearing very bad news about a new sibling, Charlie flees to the forest and is transported in time to a Stone Age forest. This is an exciting narrative that will be lapped up by mature readers who are ready for a roller coaster of adrenaline and who can handle difficult themes. Most suitable for Upper KS2.
