If Roald Dahl had written A Monster Calls...

Everyone is always shouting at Gus to stop leaning back in his chair - but does he care? No way! Then sure enough, the chair falls, he cracks his head and has to spend all summer in bed. Out of the crack escape his memories, dreams and imagination...and a beautiful little butterfly guide. Gus must follow the butterfly to recapture all he's lost - including that locked box he doesn't seem to want to touch...

A delightful and moving exploration of grief and the joy of all that makes us human, from the sparkling voice of Laura Dockrill with heartwarming illustrations from Gwen Millward.
