A beloved classic adult novel skilfully abridged to inspire and engage a new generation of middle-grade readers, from a Carnegie Medal-winning author.
“We love Tanya Landman's own authored books for young readers and and are super excited for this retelling of the Jane Austen classic, Pride and Prejudice, which promises to engage a whole new generation of readers in one of our favourite stories of all time!”
~Emily
When two wealthy young men move to the neighbourhood, Mrs Bennet – mother to five unmarried daughters – is thrilled. Surely it is only a matter of time before one of her girls is snapped up! But the course of love does not always run smooth. While Jane and Mr Bingley seem destined for one another, there are those who would wish it otherwise; while Elizabeth and Mr Darcy do not seem destined for one another, somehow their paths must always cross... Then there are Lydia and Kitty, the silliest and vainest of the Bennet sisters, keen to attract the wickedly attractive Mr Wickham and his military comrades. Love is in the air – but where will it all end?
Tanya Landman has written numerous books for children and young people, including Buffalo Soldier, winner of the Carnegie Medal. Most recently she has turned her hand to historical novels and classic retellings for middle-grade readers, and she also wrote the picture book The Song of the Nightingale, illustrated by Laura Carlin and shortlisted for the Kate Greenaway Medal. Tanya lives in Devon.
