Publisher Description
A beautiful story about family, friendship and music.
Hidden song is a heart warming adventure about a 12 year old girl called Grace and her friends Charlie, Ben, Henry, Molly and Sam. The story is set in a small seaside town with a school at its centre.
After witnessing an incident Grace is very upset and runs to her Papa's house to hide and recover. As the story unfolds Grace discovers a passion for music that she had forgotten. Her Papa (Great Grandfather) encourages Grace to write a song and this rekindles a memory in her that she'd forgotten. Grace and her friends uncover the musical history of the school and in doing so Grace's own family secrets are revealed.
Grace's Uncle Jack is a touring musician and comes to visit. He helps them start up a band and bring music back to the school. It isn't long before the discovered hidden melody begins to change everything.
The allegory that weaves its way throughout the story will engage an inquisitive reader to ask further questions once the book is finished.
Customer Reviews
Perfect gift
Bought this for my 11 year old granddaughter for a “lockdown” gift and she loved it. Said it was sad in parts but made her think about how lucky she is to live in a community. Apparently even my grandson enjoyed too. So refreshing to find a book NOT about fairies, unicorns or magic at boarding schools!!
Hidden Song
What a truly lovely, well written, uplifting tale of simple values and the gift of people coming together and making a difference. Something very apt to the world we are living in right now. What a charming and inspirational read for any age. I would absolutely recommend it.
Hidden Song a delight to read
I purchased this book for myself, however because I enjoyed it so much, I have purchased more for my wider family. A lovely read for all ages, full of warm characters, set in a delightful community all working together. Katy has such a wonderful way of writing, it really draws you into the community it is set in, seeing how the story unfolds what a magical ending.
