Description

Twist of Gold by Michael Morpurgo is an unforgettable tale of struggle and hope. In 19th-century Ireland, Sean and Annie face a desperate decision: leave their dying mother behind or risk everything to escape the devastating potato famine and plague. Their perilous journey takes them across treacherous seas and shipwrecks, finally landing in America in search of their father. Life on the streets of Boston is harsh and unforgiving, but Sean and Annie's adventure has only just begun. With survival hanging by a thread, they must confront the reality that their new land is not the golden promise they had imagined. This powerful story of family, perseverance, and hope is a testament to Michael Morpurgo's mastery of storytelling. Michael Morpurgo is a renowned author known for his thought-provoking and emotionally charged tales for children.
