Wonderful dual narrator tale of survival in the Artic. Beautifully set up, with just enough time spent developing the characters before thrusting them into peril together. Impact of climate change is shown first hand. Read at the beach to counteract the cold. Ta Ele Fountain

Storm Child by Ele Fountain Spark! Book Awards 9+ category. I love how the author effortlessly interweaves themes of climate change, family debt and sustainability through the eyes of the young character, Maya. I enjoyed the storm metaphor relating to change in Maya's life.
