"Fantastical fun with a deep message about the value of human memories. I loved that the three grannies took centre stage, with so much dynamism, humour and wisdom whilst taking memory loss head on. Go grannies!" PATIENCE AGBABI - Award-winning poet and author, THE LEAP CYCLE."A really great book ...a captivating adventure. The world is really dense with really fun and whimsical pieces of technology, but still there is a real sense of peril that runs through the story. I have never been so scared of a marshmallow chamber! I love how it pushes back on the idea of older people being useless, not by erasing the things they may find difficult, but by highlighting their strengths ...the things they still remember end up being as important as the things they have forgotten." ALEX FALASE-KOYA - Award-winning author, MARV / BREAKFAST CLUB ADVENTURES"A thrilling adventure with a memorable cast of characters!"BEN DAVIS - Award-winning author, LENNY LEMMON"An imaginative futuristic adventure that draws you in and keeps you hooked. But it's the characters who win your heart...vivid, vibrant, compelling, laugh out loud..."READERS' FAVORITE - 5 Star review"A brilliant story...
