  Trapped within the oppresive warrens of the city’s chimneys, young sweeper Tom longs for fresh air and freedom in this atmospheric and ghostly tale from Lucy Strange. 
  Young chimney sweep Tom has started seeing strange, supernatural things – fairies in the flowers by the river, a soot monster crouching in the darkness of a chimney, and then the mysterious river spirit Elle. Elle joins Tom and the other children apprenticed to cruel master sweep Mister Crow. Together, they shimmy up the town's narrow, filthy chimneys. But Tom has an ominous feeling in his bones, and when he faces his most dangerous job of all, the reason for Elle's magical appearance becomes clear . . . 
  In this riveting children's fantasy, Tom's encounters with the paranormal are not just figments of his imagination, but a call to action against the social themes of poverty and homelessness that plague his world. The prize-winning story, aimed at young adults and reluctant readers, is a testament to the power of friendship and courage in the face of adversity. 
  For fans of Kiran Millwood Hargrave (Leila and the Blue Fox), Keith Robinson (Wolf Road), Katherine Rundell (The Explorer), Michelle Harrison (A Storm of Sisters), and Natasha Farrant (Voyage of the Sparrowhawk).

  A Practical Guide To Modern...

  I know of no gamekeepers who are not countrymen to their fingertips.  They observe, they consider, they cherish and they do more than most to look after out woodlands and hedgerows, our moorlands and fens.  Theirs is not an easy job, out in all weathers and misunderstood by many townies who are further removed from the countryside and its workings than they have ever been, thanks to increasing technology which keeps them housebound.  They need never go out if they so choose, remaining glued to the screen of a mobile phone, a computer or a television. But those who do realise that the intervention of man need not always be irresponsible and thoughtless can see just what benefits can accrue from the wise management of our natural resources, and Jeremy Hobson does much in this book to apprise us all of the modern approach to keepering, from raising birds and habitat management to choosing coats and boots and training dogs. It is all here, and a fascinating read it is; both for those in the know and those who are curious to learn all about it.
