Three stories from the award-winning author, David Almond.

In 1998, David Almond stunned readers and critics alike with his brilliant debut novel, SKELLIG. This remarkable book went on to win the Carnegie Medal and Whitbread Children's Book of the Year. It has since been translated into 24 languages.

With his second and third novels, KIT'S WILDERNESS and HEAVEN EYES, David consolidated his reputation as a writer of exceptional talent. KIT'S WILDERNESS won Silver in the Smarties Prize 9-11 category, was shortlisted for the 2000 Carnegie Medal, and the Guardian Award, and HEAVEN EYES, published in January 2000, has met with glowing reviews.

David Almond won several awards for his widely-published adult short stories, before turning to children's novels. He grew up near the River Tyne, and now lives in Newcastle with his family. David says, 'Writing can be difficult, but sometimes it really does feel like a kind of magic. I think that stories are living things - among the most important things in the world.' He is winner of the Whitbread Children's Book of the Year and the Carnegie Medal, (for SKELLIG) and Smarties Award Silver Medal winner (for KIT'S WILDERNESS).
