Book Information

A collection of four short stories, each of a different genre- historical, ghost, humour and science fiction. Neil Tonge takes us back to Victorian times, where cholera is sweeping the country. Two children plot their escape from the gruelling regime of the Workhouse. In Jane Clarke's spooky tale a boy starts acting very strangely when his shadow takes on a life of its own. Then, from Michael Cox, we have the bizarre case of a boy suffering from a very rare disorder, known as 'intermittent invisibility syndrome'; whilst Tony Bradman whisks us off on a space adventure.
