The Light Jar

Nate and his mother are running away, hiding out in a tumbledown

cottage in the middle of a forest. When Mum heads off for provisions,

and then doesn’t return, Nate is left alone and afraid, with

the dark closing in all around him. But comfort can come from the

most unexpected of places - a mysterious girl trying to solve the

clues of a treasure hunt and the reappearance of an old friend

from his past. Will Nate find the bravery needed to face the troubles

of his present and ultimately illuminate the future?

A story of fear and hope, loneliness and friendship - full of the

heart, engaging characters and propulsive, page-turning mystery

that has made The Goldfish Boy the breakout children’s books hit

of 2017.
