Night Windows

Marjorie Darke
(Macmillan Children's Books)
978-0330318716, RRP £2.99, Paperback
8-10 Junior/Middle
Buy "Night Windows (Piper)" on Amazon

Marjorie Darke skilfully and affectionately develops this story from the simple premise that children's drawings can come to life. Ben creates Zeke and his dog Lugs as characters in a classroom mural of an old mill. The technically-inclined Zeke visits and explores Ben's modern world, ultimately saving him from the 'wreckers'. Children of 9-12 will be captivated by this accessible story.
