The award-winning author of Hamnet rejoins the illustrator of Where Snow Angels Go for a mischievous tale of ancient magic and modern-day moodiness.
Someone here was sad but pretending not to be Someoneand this thought made a smile curl up on its faceneeded some nouka-mischief.
When Jem and his family first move to a small town, he struggles with his new life. The unhappier he grows, the stranger things becomemischief and chaos seem to bloom everywhere. His sister Verity is sure it is the work of a nouka, an ancient creature that lives deep down inside the hill above the towna creature forged from the sparks of a long-extinct volcano. Jem is adamant that there is no such thing. But it is through the magic and mayhem of this small mystical creature that Jem finally finds a sense of belonging, a sense of homeand once again discovers a spark of magic.
