Goodnight Silver
By Abi Elphinstone
Published by Simon & Schuster Ltd

Are you a pessimist?
Do you always think the worst?
Do you need a story that will warm your heart and fill your mind with hope?
Abi Elphinstone has created just that: a story full of adventures, friendships, loyalty and hope.
Follow Emmy, a pessimist, who just can’t seem to get things right, into Whisperfell.
You will travel through snowy mountains and never ending landscapes.
You will immerse yourself in dangerous situations, good versus evil.
You will fall in love with the animal kingdom where freedom is the utmost priority.

Abi Elphinstone, best-selling author of Sky Song, has written a beautiful yet powerful middle grade adventure story that will fly off your classroom/ library shelves.

When Emmy becomes separated from her parents by a blizzard in the mountains of Mongolia, she assumes the worst: lost, lonely and never being found!
But whilst sheltering in a cave, a snow leopard cub befriends Emmy. Both have nothing, no family, no food, only the shelter of the cave. However, stories don’t end there, so along comes a boy who believes in magic and impossible things.

Determined to reunite the snow leopard cub with his mother, Emmy finds herself on a journey to a secret land, where wild animals live in peace, Whisperfell.

Will Whisperfell trust Emmy?
Can she solve the mystery of the enchanted maps?
Can Emmy reach Whisperfell before the hunters close in?

Gorgeously illustrated throughout, this epic animal adventure will make a brilliant class read and engage all from the very first page.
