Summary
Bloomsbury presents The Wild Way Home by Sophie Kirtley, read by Sarah Ovens.
'So good I read it twice' – Hilary McKay, author of The Skylarks' War
'This thrilling time-slip adventure oozes magic and heart' – Bookseller EDITOR'S CHOICE
When Charlie’s longed-for brother is born with a serious heart condition, Charlie’s world is turned upside down. Upset and afraid, Charlie flees the hospital and makes for the ancient forest on the edge of town. There Charlie finds a boy floating face-down in the stream, injured, but alive. But when Charlie sets off back to the hospital to fetch help, it seems the forest has changed. It’s become a place as strange and wild as the boy dressed in deerskins. For Charlie has unwittingly fled into the Stone Age, with no way to help the boy or return to the present day. Or is there?
What follows is a wild, big-hearted adventure as Charlie and the Stone Age boy set out together to find what they have lost – their courage, their hope, their family and their way home.
Fans of Piers Torday and Stig of the Dump will love this wild, wise and heartfelt debut adventure.

Endearing adventure
A lovely heart warming story. Bringing back great memories of my childhood and no doubt many others. Had a few tears welling up at the end.

A heartwarming story of childhood
A lovely read for an older child. Beautifully written description enables the reader’s imagination to really picture the story. The storyline kept me turning the pages, wanting to know more. An emotional, happy ending brought a tear to my eye.
