This classic book – winner of the Carnegie Medal – has been reissued with a striking new cover for a fresh generation of readers.

It is the story of Solomon, a boy who struggles with dyslexia and feels that his teachers and parents have failed him. His refuge is in the local kirkyard among ancient graves that lie in the shadow of the rowan tree; the only thing that grows there. When the tree is uprooted, a strange and eerie power is released. Is it a curse?

Written by a multi-award-winning author, this tale unfolds in remarkable and dramatic ways. Solomon must fight to save a young girl, stand up to his alcoholic father and confront his learning difficulties.

An excellent book for both girls and boys, this is a story that will resonate and stay with readers.
