Carnegie Medal winnerCongratulations to Anthony McGowan who won the Carnegie Medal 2020 with his short novel "Lark".
The themes of survival and connection with nature really resonated with the judges.
This is the fourth book by McGowan published by Barrington Stoke (Brock, Pike and Rook). You will find them all in the school library in the super readable section at start of Teen Fiction.
"These books form an incredible body of work that eloquently explores the reality of growing up in deprivation, while also illuminating the potential for succour and healing that can be found in the natural world"
from the Barrington Stoke website.
