In the shadow of a bully, a rescued rook becomes a symbol of hope in this poignant, Carnegie Medal shortlisted novella about growing up and family.

When Kenny and Nicky rescue a rook left for dead, Kenny is determined to keep it alive. Nicky doubts the scruffy bird will make it, but then Nicky has plenty else to worry about. This time, its not his dad or Kenny who need help his dads sorting his life out and Kennys busy making plans with his new best mate. Now its Nickys turn to struggle with a school bully, his first love and the fact that everything is about to go very, very wrong.

Shortlisted for the 2018 CILIP Carnegie Medal.
