The Bower Bird

The Bower Bird is the winner of the prestigious 2007 Costa Children's Book Award.

The Bower Bird is the sequel to the critically acclaimed The Burying Beetle which was shortlisted for the Branford Boase Award for an outstanding first novel to a first-time writer of a book for young people.

Gussie lives in Cornwall and, like most twelve-year-olds, is quickly growing up. She is also awaiting news of a heart transplant operation. When Gussie moves from the coast to a new house in town, she rebels, discovers her ancestors and an interest in photography, falls in love and has parent troubles; all whilst experiencing general adolescent angst and trying not to wait for what might never happen.
