About this title

Review:

"Aurora's Tears is one of those rare and wonderful books in which, from the very first page, you find yourself immersed in a story so beautifully drawn and compelling that you just have to read on."Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams, co-authors of bestseller Tunnels"Remember the classic tale of Stone Soup? Cornish Stone lies at the heart of Stuart Webb's own recipe, and it's the folklore and mystery of that part of the world, combined with a believable modern heroine, that gives this book its appeal. A subtle and rewarding read."Steve Augarde, Nestle Smarties Children's Book Prize award winner"An engaging story, and a hugely impressive debut."Jonathan Scott, Book and Magazine Collector
