Feather
Boy - press pack
 Adapted
from the award winning children's book, Feather Boy by Nicky Singer,
the story is about Robert Nobel, a boy who despairs of his newly
divorced parents.
Robert is the
butt of classroom jokes and a victim of Niker the classroom bully.
He is haunted
by dreams that seem to tell the future as well as the past.
His life changes
when a storyteller invites some of his class to Mayfield House,
a place Robert has already dreamed about.
There he meets
a spiky old lady called Edith Sorrel who chooses him as her partner.
He embarks on a series of events that will change their lives forever.

Johnson and Thomas Sangster.
