Description

These beautifully-written stories grow out of David Almond's childhood in the streets and fields of Tyneside.

They're funny and sad, realistic and strange, and are suffused with a profound sense of mystery and wonder.

They show that the ordinary world is filled with extraordinary possibilities, that the local really does contain the universal.

In Counting Stars David Almond tackles the themes common to his work - joy, darkness, love, death and identity - with exquisite sensitivity and tenderness.

A must-read for Almond fans everywhere. From the author of the modern children's classic Skellig - winner of the Carnegie Medal and the Whitbread Children's Book Award.

David Almond won the 2015 Guardian Children's Book Prize with A Song for Ella Grey.
