Storm Child cover

'A beautifully written page-turner of a novel', Sarah Crossan, Carnegie Medal-winning author of One

Maya Penrose has saltwater running in her veins. She's the best surfer for miles, living a carefree life with her fisherman dad and baker mum. But money is running out, and businessmen are after their land.

When her dad loses his fishing boat in a terrible storm, her parents decide to start over, travelling to the other side of the world, where they can teach sailing and diving and Maya can be home-schooled. But Maya will soon discover that life on a tropical island isn't always paradise, and that she must learn from every storm that comes into her life - no matter how big, or how destructive.

'It is an amazing book and if you are interested in surfing or the sea this book will definitely appeal to you' - Young Reader Review
