The Notted Island

"Child [...] turns out to be a superb storyteller, with her beautifully imagined fantasy landscape brought to life in lyrical prose..." - The Telegraph For a very long time, the world was black and white... Last Island is struggling. Colour has not reached them, their Notte is making mistake after mistake and now an Automated Night Sky salesman has come to town. It's time for Umbertiska Lupp, a young islander with pockets full of cake, to take matters into her own hands and embark on an adventure to bring unity and colour to Last Island. This beautiful gold-foiled hardback is filled with breathtaking illustrations that transition from black and white to colour, complete with a matching gold ribbon marker. This is the perfect gift for any intrepid young reader.
