  • The Truth of Things, Reading Age 9


Interest Age: 13 to 18
Reading Age: 9
2019

A pack of the four book's in Anthony McGowan's critically acclaimed novella series.

Brock, Pike, Rook and Lark are four wonderful, powerful brief books that take you into the lives of two poor, single-parent boys. The books are stand alone titles, but tell the on-going story of the brothers. Lark, the final book of the set; is as powerful as the three preceding titles and is winner of the 2020 Carnegie Medal (Rook was also shortlisted in 2018).

Lark, and the three books that preceded it in the series, Brock, Pike and Rook, form an incredible body of work that eloquently explores the reality for children growing up in deprivation, while also illuminating the potential for succour and healing that can be found in the natural world. To have such high quality fiction originally published in a format accessible to dyslexic readers is a rare privilege.

Each book has a dyslexia-friendly layout, typeface and paperstock so that even more readers can enjoy it. It has been edited to a reading age of 9 at an interest level for readers aged from 13 to 18 years.
