The Story Thief

From Waterstones Book Prize shortlisted Graham Carter comes this story perfect for little bookworms, and those who haven't quite discovered the magic of books yet...Olive is a shy girl who prefers reading about adventures to having them herself. But when a mysterious figure steals all of the books in town, Olive is forced straight into an adventure of her own. The thief, meanwhile, doesn't quite know what to do with the stories he's stolen. Olive must track down the thief and teach him the joys of reading - and sharing - stories.
