  When Kip Tiernan was growing up during the Great Depression, she’d help her granny feed the men who came to their door asking for help. As Kip grew older, and as she continued to serve food to hungry people, she noticed something peculiar: huddled at the back of serving lines were women dressed as men. At the time, it was believed that there were no women experiencing homelessness. And yet Kip would see women sleeping on park benches and searching for food in trash cans. Kip decided to open the first shelter for women—a shelter with no questions asked, no required chores, just good meals and warm beds. With persistence, Kip took on the city of Boston in her quest to open Rosie's Place, our nation's first shelter for women. Kip Tiernan's story of humanity and tenacity reveals how one person's dream can make a huge difference and that small acts of kindness can lead to great things.

  ‘Mitchell is well aware of what will make kids laugh. An observant and captivatingly funny story’ 
  Sunday Times Children’s Book of the Week 
  A hilarious adventure for readers aged 9+ from the author of Escape from Camp Boring. When Things Went Wild is also a timely call to protect our environment. 
  When Kit’s family move to a crumbling house in the Scottish Highlands, he’s got a lot to deal with – terrible Wi-Fi, a new school in the middle of nowhere, and, as always, his annoying little brother, Jack. But it’s not until the brothers find a strange object on the moors that Kit’s problems really begin. 
  A policewoman comes knocking, and the boys learn that they have found a tracker that has been removed from the leg of a golden eagle. The illegal killing of these majestic birds is all too common, and now a pair of nesting eagles are under threat. Kit and Jack start to investigate, soon joined by Tamora – the most popular girl in school – and her younger sister, Bea. 
  Who is trying to harm the eagles, and why? Chief suspects are landowner Lord Cavendish, local farmer McNab and sinister game keeper Mosby . . . Can the city kids cope with the country – and catch the culprit? 
  Tom Mitchell, the Sunday Times bestselling author, once again proves his knack for creating captivating stories for young adults. When Things Went Wild is a testament to his ability to blend humour, action, and a strong message about nature conservation in a way that resonates with the teenage audience. 
  For fans of Jeanne Duprau (Voyagers), Katherine Paterson (My Brigadista Year), Nidhi Chanani (Misty the Proud Cloud), Stacy Mcanulty (The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl), and Jake Burt (The Right Hook of Devin Velma).
