Win a copy of
The Great Bear Breakout
by Catherine Randall
We have 3 paperback copies to be won!
WIN A PAPERBACK COPY of Catherine Randall’s thrilling new historical fiction middle-grade novel inspired by the Royal Surrey Zoological Gardens, a now-forgotten Victorian zoo in London!
London, 1855. Twelve-year-old Rosa doesn’t want to leave her widowed father and when he reluctantly sends her to live with her wealthy relatives across the river, she feels more alone than ever.
She soon discovers the Surrey Zoological Gardens, where she befriends Jem, a young bearkeeper. When
Rosa learns the animals are to be sold, and the bears may be killed, she joins forces with Jem, vowing to
save them.
A travelling menagerie seems like the perfect solution, until Rosa encounters the villainous Mr Murdlock
and uncovers the bears’ true, dreadful fate.
With Jem threatened into silence, and no adult she can trust, Rosa realises the only way to protect the
animals is to take matters into her own hands.
Together, can Rosa and Jem outwit the dangerous Mr Murdlock and rescue the bears before it’s too late?
Available to buy from The Book Guild or Amazon
