Praise for Rosen Trevithick

"Brilliant."
- The Independent
"The characters are engaging, the plot tightly woven with enough twists and turns to maintain momentum, and the book deals with important themes in a very sensitive and thought provoking manner. I particularly admired the language, which treads an admirably fine line between moments of humour and the serious consideration of themes such as mental illness."
- Alex Roddie (Author)
"I was reading this aloud to my 4 year old niece when waiting for hubby to finish with a doctor's appointment. She was totally enthralled! When we were ready to leave, the gentleman across from us had been listening and said, "Ah! Man! Do you have to go? I was really enjoying that!""
- DW
"Funny, scary, warm, witty, mysterious and on the edge of your seat stuff."
- T. Smith

Poem Generator

Poem Generator

Search Your Shutterstock History

Search Your Shutterstock History
