The Times, Children's Book of the Week"A twist-laden, thriller-like tale of a bird-mad boy, some bullies and an escaped convict hiding in the nearby woods." Observer"A twisty crime drama as well as a persuasive story about friendship and nature." The Sunday Times"Twitch is a good old-fashioned adventure story that feels like a modern-day Secret Seven." BBC Wildlife Magazine"[A] pacy mystery adventure featuring a birdwatching detective hot on the heels of a dangerous escaped prisoner." iNewspaper"Leonard has crafted an intelligent mystery from unlikely material, with bonus bird facts." Irish Times"A winged masterpiece." Maz Evans"Enthralling from beginning to end, it really touched my young bird-loving heart! Just wonderful!" Dara McAnulty"Birds, mystery and fowl play! What more could you want?" Gill Lewis"Glorious! Full of excitement and wonder!" Sophie Anderson"A brave and thrilling new adventure from one of my favourite writers. I honestly didn't put the book down until the very last, exciting, page-turn and I'm twitching for the next adventure!" Jasbinder Bilan"Twitch is an absolute triumph. The perfect blend of mystery and adventure, a winning hero with an eye for ornithological facts and a heart as big as the countryside, plus a cracking whipsmart plot, I think this is M.G. Leonard's best book yet." Christopher Edge"Cracking characters, beyond pacy plotting and an ending that is almost Bugsy Malone-esque!" Phil Earle"Twitch is a compelling read - an adventure mystery with birds - what more could any reader want?!" Stephen Moss"Adventure, friendship and the pure unassuming beauty of nature ... a book that could have been a collaboration between David Attenborough and Roald Dahl. 注意事項: 1.本店只販售全新正品,絕不賣仿冒品,請安心購買。 2.賣場商品皆為現書在台,如庫存小於3本,可聊聊請小幫手先確認書況。 3.書籍在運送過程中較易有損傷,如介意者請勿下單。 4.開箱請全程錄影,確保雙方之權益。
