A beautiful novel set against the backdrop of an important and pivotal movement in UK history, tying in with the centenary of the Suffragettes first major victory in 2018. A hundred years ago, women didn't have the vote. When Lizzy Frost becomes involved with the fledgling Suffragette movement, it expands her horizons in ways she never could have imagined. From time spent in prison for the cause, to new relationships with fellow campaigners, Lizzy's struggle for votes for women sets her heart on fire. Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 12+

"Lizzy is a fantastic character, full of passion and wonderfully unafraid to stand up for herself and her beliefs" BookTrust "Linda Newbery brings the suffragette movement to life through the eyes of one vividly drawn young woman" LoveReading4Kids "Linda Newbery has done a great job of condensing a big issue into a small story" Historical Association "I like the fact that it is certainly current, but at no times did it feel like being rushed out for any centenary of the Suffragette movement. It could almost be the coming-of-age-tale for any young woman" The Bookbag

Övrig information

When Linda Newbery was a teenager she secretly wrote her own stories and hid them in a wardrobe so they wouldnt be found. Writing was put on hold for a few years when Linda became a teacher, but at the age of 30 she set herself the challenge of finishing a book and getting it published. She now writes full-time and has produced books for all ages. She has won the Costa Childrens Book Prize and has twice been shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal, as well as for the Guardian Childrens Fiction Prize.
