Roddy Doyle Ages 9-11 Pair Award-winning author Pack by Roddy Doyle (author) (UK edition)

It’s fair to say there are few writers as versatile (or anything like as good) as Roddy Doyle, the Irish literary legend. Get this: he won the world-renowned Booker Prize for his novel Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha, and wrote the screenplay to hit 1991 film The Commitments. Plus, he’s won the love of kids everywhere with his daft books about Rover the Wonder Dog. But do you think he’s forgotten about older children? Think again! And it’s no surprise that his books for ages 9+ are just as compelling and downright brilliant as his younger fiction. (Though they are moodier, tenser and stranger.) From the icy chill of Wilderness to haunting ghost story A Greyhound of a Girl, power crackles through every page. Place yourself in the hands of a master…
