Caracteristici

Shrimpton's YA novel SUNFLOWERS IN FEBRUARY won the Red Book Award for YA Fiction in 2019.

Notă biografică

Phyllida Shrimpton obtained a post graduate degree in Human Resource Management, a career choice which was almost as disastrous as her cooking. Thankfully her love of books and writing led her to a new career as an author. Her young adult novel Sunflowers in February won the Red Book Award for YA Fiction in 2019. Having lived in London, The Netherlands and the Cotswolds with her husband, daughter, giant Saint Bernard and grumpy old terrier, she now lives on the Essex Coast in a place she likes to describe as being where the river meets the sea.

Recenzii

a felicitous fireside read this is...Of course, secrets have a knack of uncovering themselves.And in the telling of this tale, the author explores disability, unexpressed grief and environmental issues. But ultimately this is an uplit novel and god knows we can do with all do with a bit of that.
The most heartwarming late summer read!
'A slice of reading heaven... Just as wonderful and gorgeous as The One Hundred Years of Lenni and Margot and The Funny Thing about Norman Foreman' LoveReading. 'Heartwarming and uplifting. It will make you miss your grandfather and want to hug your grandchild' Adele Parks for Platinum. 'A bittersweet, sparkling and life-affirming book'
