A spell-binding collection of short stories from Britain’s best-loved children’s author, Michael Morpurgo. Explore friendship, love, revenge, life and death in the pages of From Hereabout Hill. Included in this collection of short stories is a poignant tale about civil war, where a young girl hides from enemy soldiers in a public toilet; a haunting story of a little girl swept out to sea while collecting cowrie shells; and the moving account of two brothers, who, over the years, create a mental picture of their absent father. Former Children’s Laureate and award-winning author of War Horse, Michael Morpurgo, demonstrates why he is considered to be the master story-teller with this diverse collection of stories for children.

This is a splendid collection of stories from one of my favourite children‘s author. There‘s a variety here to give you a glimpse of his masterful storytelling, stories with timeless values about love, friendship, regret, life, death, even a ghost..some poignant, one hopeful, some melancholy. Every story, except the last one maybe, tugged at my heartstrings.
