Author Description

"I knew as soon as I saw it, that this tower was magic."When Widget finds an ancient map, she locates all the places that she and Tim have grown to love around Goosey Farm: the lane where her dog Russet was killed; the old burial chamber; the village, the church, the school and Rushford Wood.And it's there, in the middle of the wood, that she sees the words 'The Tower'. Widget senses that magic cannot be far away. She sets off on a tower-hunt – through holly-bushes and brambles, over broken branches and strange plants. Framed by tall dark fir trees and encircled by a lawn of blue-green grass, Widget finds a very little grey stone tower – a magical place, where wishes made will all come true.A heart-warming sequel to Dog's Journey from one of today's best-loved authors. Carnegie medallist Gene Kemp's exquisite writing brings a breath of fresh country air to all young readers.
