Lizzie Zipmouth

Lizzie refuses to speak. She doesn't want to talk to Rory or Jake, her new stepbrothers. Or to Sam, their dad. Or even to her mum. She's completely fed up with having to join a new family, and nothing can convince her to speak to them. Not football, not pizza, not a new bedroom. That is, until she meets Great-Gran - a member of the new family who is even more stubborn than she is . . .

Reviews

A great book

—— The Good Book Guide

Delightful and extremely funny

—— Children's Book News

Another winner from JW

—— The Bookseller

A feelgood novel about circumstance and chance encounter

—— Daily Mirror

Beaumont has spread his wings with Small World, ditching the out and out comedy for some sharp social analysis, but retaining his knack for a witty, punchy story

—— Metro

A fast-paced novel with a gripping plot

—— Waterstones' Quarterly

Stourton is a name to watch

—— Publishers' Weekly

Beautifully crafted...a compelling debut of youthful daring. His quietly poetic prose is charming, and there's real warmth and depth here in his explorations of friendship and guilt

—— Daily Mail

Part nostalgic reverie, part taut little thriller, it makes for a promising debut

—— Guardian
