'I enjoyed it tremendously ... The next time I go to Paris I will be looking up at the rooftops' – Jacqueline Wilson
Everyone tells Sophie that she was orphaned in a shipwreck – found floating in a cello case on the English Channel on her first birthday. But Sophie is convinced her mother also survived.
When the Welfare Agency threatens to separate her from her guardian and send her to an orphanage, Sophie takes matters into her own hands, starting with the only clue she has – the address of a cello-maker in Paris. On the run from the authorities, Sophie finds Matteo and his network of rooftoppers – urchins who walk tightropes and live in the sky. In a race across the rooftops of Paris, will they be able to find her mother before it's too late?
Hopeful, inspiring and thrilling in equal measure, this is a classic adventure story about pursuing your dreams and never ignoring a possible.
'A writer with an utterly distinctive voice and a wild imagination' – Philip Pullman(P)2023 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
Resumo da Crítica
I enjoyed it tremendously … An ultra stylish writer with a true gift for imaginative storytelling. The next time I go to Paris I will be looking up at the rooftops
A rare and remarkable treat, witty and full of original thoughts … This quirky book advocates curiosity, thoughtfulness, freedom and courage
A writer with an utterly distinctive voice and a wild imagination
Whimsical, beautifully written and as carefully balanced as the tightrope Sophie learns to walk, Rooftoppers is a sensitive and emotionally resonant novel with an uplifting message about the power of hope
Rundell is an astonishing young talent and her books combine old-fashioned, edge-of-your-seat adventure with richly imagined characters … Read everything she writes
Katherine Rundell might be the cleverest children’s writer working today ... [Rooftoppers] draws on Rundell’s own experiences of scaling the dreaming spires of Oxford, and does so with whimsicality, wit and a thrilling sense of adventure
[a] children’s book that wipes the floor with most adult novels
