Another pacy wonderful adventure steeped in the magic of nature and friendship * Jasbinder Bilan *
Utterly brilliant. Every book M. G. Leonard writes, I think ‘ooh, this is my favourite’ - and yes, this is my favourite AGAIN! Absolutely magnificent. Gripping and funny, utterly engaging, unputdownable. Cannot recommend highly enough. Perfect storytelling, loved it with all my heart! * Liz Hyder, author of Bearmouth *
Spark is a skillfully crafted mystery adventure, it’s also a clarion call for environmentalists everywhere, and will, no doubt, help nurture a love of birds and nature in readers young and old. -- Rob Biddulph * LoveReading4Kids *
