Children’s novel for 8-12 year olds
Hello! My name is Anita, welcome to my website.
In 2009 my children’s novel Matty-boy & The Secret Pigeon Racket was published, with the aim of encouraging children to tell a trusted adult if they are affected by bullying .
Matty-boy & The secret Pigeon Racket Review:
“Fantastic read. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed this book.
Beautifully illustrated and well written.
I highly recommend this book that deals with bullying and its affects to everyone!”
What can you can expect from the story:
‘Ever wished you could be a rock star?
Ever day dreamed about your team winning the cup or the league?
Ever wished that something magical would happen to you?
Matt is a lonely young boy, who uses his imagination to cope with the challenges in his life on a daily – if not hourly – basis.
Matt has been fostered into an eccentric new family the Joys, and has to change his home, school and friends once again. At the Joy’s he discovers and befriends Percy a scruffy, injured talking pigeon who has run away from his own family – the pigeon mafia – also known as the Secret Pigeon Racket.
Together they deal with issues of friendship, bullying, family and loss – and solve a royal kidnapping plot too!
Have you ever noticed a pigeon spying on you? No? Well take a closer look, you may be surprised!’
Like Matt, are you finding it hard to tell someone
that you are being bullied?
Every book sold through our website will have £1.00 donated to the work of Bullying UK
