The Tiger Who Sleeps Under My Chair
Author: Hannah Foley
Format: Paperback
Number of Pages: 320
A dual-timeline 9+ novel set in contemporary and Victorian England, steeped in the natural history of Mary Anning's Jurassic coast, about two generations of a family and a secret illness finally come to light. Devon, 2021: After 12-year-old Rosie Linden goes missing for four days and four nights, no one believes her when she says she had turned into a tiger to protect those around her. London, 1880s: Emma Linden is kept hidden away in her father's attic. Her dream is to follow in the footsteps of Mary Anning, the famous fossil hunter. But it seems she has inherited her mother's illness and must be protected from herself. When her dearest brother James begins to speak obsessively of a tiger called the Bhayankar Raaja, gifted to the Natural History Museum, everything she held certain begins to crumble. Their only refuge is Kersbrook House, their magical childhood home on the Devon coast. As the mystery of Rosie Linden's family history unravels, past and present blur, and the two stories powerfully collide as tigers prowl and a shadow looms over Kersbrook. A beautifully told story full of hope, fossils and friendship, that challenges our perceptions of, and how we value, those who see things differently.
