Description
The Glass Town Game
In this enchanting novel, four siblings create a fantasy world to escape their harsh reality. Inside a small Yorkshire parsonage, they invent a game called Glass Town, where toy soldiers fight Napoleon and no one dies. This make-believe land helps the children escape from a difficult situation: Charlotte and Emily are being sent away to a boarding school. But then something incredible happens: a train whisks them all away to a real Glass Town, and the children trade the moors for a wonderland of their own. However, this new world is not without its dangers and complexities. The siblings must now battle their own imaginations in order to survive. With its magical celebration of authorship, creativity, and classic literature, this novel is a captivating tale that explores the power of imagination and the importance of staying true to oneself.Related Products
