📱 eBook en inglés THE WITCH'S DAUGHTER

On the Scottish island of Skua, friendship develops between the lonely and mysterious Perdita and a blind girl, Janey. Both possess a kind of second sight - Janeys is the ability to hear, feel and remember more than others, and Perditas is the ominous legacy of her being a witchs daughter. When Janeys brother, Tom, starts investigating a cluster of mysterious events and suspicious characters, all three become entwined in an adventure of hidden jewels, desperate criminals and dangerous detection.

Written in 1963, TheWitchs Daughter showcases Nina Bawdens innate regard for the integrity of her young characters. As she has said: I like writing for children. It seems to me that most people underestimate their understanding and the strength of their feelings and in my books for them I try to put this right. Hugely admired on publication by both reviewers and readers, it was described as thrilling by the Times Literary Supplement.
