We are thrilled to announce that author, Rebecca Orwin is visiting Kingston Park Academy on February 12th, to speak to Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 about her book, The Monsters at the End of the World.

“Sunny waited until her mother was asleep before she went back for the monster.

All her life, Sunny has known three truths about the creatures that prowl the seas off her tiny coastal town. They are dangerous. They are violent. They are monsters. But when a chance encounter leads to an unexpected connection, Sunny discovers just how wrong she has been.

The monster she meets – Mo – is intelligent, gentle, and searching for his lost brother. Sunny desperately wants to help, and to keep her new friend a secret. But other people are keeping secrets too.

And as hunger grips the town, new truths will emerge about the real monsters in Seawaren.

An astonishing debut novel about friendship, trust and survival, perfect for fans of Skellig.”

‘A powerful tale of compassion and understanding’ Hannah Gold, author of THE LAST BEAR.
