Treasure In The Garden by Hilary Mckay
Peace and quiet is hard to find in Paradise House. So when Nathan escapes to the cupboard under the stairs, little does he expect to find the clue to some buried treasure. What could he possibly unearth in the garden of Paradise House? Except the odd snail...THE TREASURE IN THE GARDEN
'a funny, intriguing story of children. Tony kenyon's illustrations enter into the spirit of it all.'
THE TREASURE IN THE GARDEN / THE ZOO IN THE ATTIC
'The events are entirely plausible, yet there is excitement in what happens because the children do not anticipate it. The characterisation is especially good. The children are well differentiated, and their parents too are individualised.
ZOO IN THE ATTIC
'Irresistable fun, excellent writing.'
THE EXILES
'an inventive romp from a writer with a sparky future.'
THE EXILES
'This most engaging comedy of manners ... a delight.'
Hilary McKay's strength lies in her understanding of young people and her ability to evoke them very simply.' * THE GUARDIAN *
