978-0099301677, RRP £4.99, Paperback
10-14 Middle/Secondary
Buy "The Mennyms (The Guardian 27th Children's Fiction Award Winner)" on Amazon

A memorable book which works at many levels. At simplest it's the story of a family of dolls who've managed to keep up the pretence of being human for 40 years until the visit of their new landlord is threatened. The trick in the skill of the storytelling is a joy to experience. A book to work with and think about together.
