Inhaltsangabe

Lucas likes to visit his great gran. She's almost ninety and in a care home. Her mind has gone. She thinks she's still a little five-year-old girl. Lucas's girlfriend, Kay, has no time for the old woman. Until she and Lucas go looking for a long-lost doll that has been locked away in a wardrobe these past eighty years. How could they know the horror their search would unleash?

Papercuts is an eerie and haunting series written to appeal to students aged 13+ who find full-length novels overwhelming. All titles have an accessible word count of 5000-6000. Written by respected and accomplished authors, they are packed with horror and elements of the supernatural. But be warned, they're not for the faint-hearted!

This hi-lo series for struggling and reluctant readers has been written for children aged 13+, whose current reading age is between 8 and 9 years. These age-appropriate short reads range from 48 to 58 pages and are written by accomplished authors. They incorporate a large font size and text separated into bite-sized chunks, along with carefully considered letter and paragraph spacing that can reduce visual stress. The series has plenty of practice at one level, allowing consolidation of learning before moving on to more challenging reads.

As a particular lover of mystery and suspense, especially when there's a ghostly or supernatural element, Ann loves to write for children, young adults and adults, and has around 20 books to her name. She also writes magazine articles on all kinds of topics, from animals to toy collectors. Ann loves to help children and adults develop their writing skills by running creative writing courses and regularly visiting schools to hold workshops and give talks about books and writing.
