BRAND NEW BOY by David Almond

A charming, warm and witty tale from a master storyteller, winner of the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Award and author of the Carnegie Medal-winning Skellig.

George is not like any other kids in the class, or in fact like anyone Dan or his mates have ever met before.

But George turns out to be clever and funny, and everyone soon forgets his oddness … until a shocking truth comes to light.

George is in danger, and there are people out to destroy him. Can Dan, Maxie, Billy and Louise rescue their new pal from obliteration?

Brand New Boy, illustrated by Marta Altés, will be published by Walker Books on 5th November 2020.
