Description

Abigail Crumb works every day after school at the local vet’s while she saves up for a present for her pet elephant. So when she loses – and then finds again – one of the puppies in her care, she knows she can’t tell anyone without putting her job on the line. But how will she keep her secret?

After several chance encounters with Henry Brocket – a lonely little boy who’s always dressed as a pilot – Abigail suddenly realises what she needs to do.

John Boyne’s extraordinary tale of a little girl and her menagerie is brought to life by evocative illustrations.
