Reviews
"Powerful... this is a writer following in the footsteps of writers such as Westall, Brooks and Almond" * Books for Keeps *
"The trauma of grief, the brutality of bullies, the magical realness of dreams, and the power of nature - this poetic triumph reveals we're stronger than we think... With an urgent inferno of a climax suffused in magic and nature, the best of humanity glints through destructive flames to create a powerfully memorable story... Running with Horses brims with truths that light the way and warm the heart" * LoveReading4Kids *
