Zak - a children's novel
Full of adventure, humour, magic and discovery, ‘Zak’ conveys the importance of connecting with nature, honouring difference, and being your unique self.
Most loved by 7-12 year olds and adults, ‘Zak’ is a 150 page story.
"I am not exactly a usual boy. And I started being unusual even before I was born. Maybe you are unusual too. I used to think i was the only one but I'm beginning to suspect there are a lot more of us than I ever imagined."
Born flying Zak's first proper conversation is with a duck. He flies out of the window on his first day of school and lives his zany, wondering life with his cat and his family . . . until one summer, age 11, he goes to River Island. There he meets Laloune and Sh'krump who lead him into a series of funny, scary and astonishing adventures, through which Zak discovers that reality is full of magic and that even people make good friends.
