Lilliput by Sam Gayton

Lilliput by Sam Gayton

Inspired by Gulliver’s Travels, Lilliput is an exhilarating adventure filled with cunning escape plans, evil clockmakers and very talkative parrots. Join Lily as she travels over rooftops, down chimneys and into chocolate shops on a journey to find the one place in the world where she belongs . . . Home. 'An undertaking of which Swift himself would have approved' Irish Times 'Spirited and clever tribute to the original' Daily Mail

"Spirited and clever tribute to the original" -- Sally Morris * Daily Mail *
"Unlimited storytelling inventiveness. . Swift himself would have approved." -- Robert Dunbar * Irish Times *
"Sam Gayton brings a lively cast — including a boy rescuer, a chatty parrot and a kind chocolate-shop owner — to the appealing scenario of a tiny person in a giant world." -- Nicolette Jones * Sunday Times *
"Lovely old-fashioned storytelling… this beautifully illustrated book will appeal widely" -- Louise Haines * Guardian *
"Exuberant and imaginative use of language, page-turningly exciting... A very covetable book." * Reading Zone *

Sam Gayton lives in South London. In 2009 he completed the Writing for Young People MA at Bath Spa University. His first book is The Snow Merchant. He loves American novels, Italian food and the English countryside. When he's not writing, he likes playing old board games, strumming his guitar and joining as many rock bands as possible (currently at seven).
