Sarah Lean Pack x 4 Pack by Sarah Lean (author) (UK edition)

Animal fiction with a difference: heartfelt, gritty and realistic. Fact: the tough bits of life are easier when you have a fluffy friend on your side. If you love War Horse or Megan Rix, you’ll have an idea of what to expect – except that these tales happen right now, today, in the lives of struggling modern kids. Leo’s a dreamer, but his dreams of being a hero just aren’t coming true, until a little white dog pops up in his life. Hannah’s grandad is losing his memory. But what’s that got to do with a special whale? And could a mysterious silver-grey wolfhound really be the ghost of Cally’s mother? See, we told you these stories were different. Curl up (with a pet, if you have one) and unwind…

Contemporary animal fiction with heaps of child-appeal

Explores issues such as bullying, grief and dementia

The animal focus brings a light touch to serious topics

For fans of Michael Morpurgo, Gill Lewis and Megan Rix
