GIVEAWAY: Olive of Groves

*Giveaway posted 29^th October, enter by 3^rd November*

This week, we’re excited to have special signed copies of Katrina Nannestad’s new children’s novel, Olive of Groves, to give away.

Fellow author Judith Rossell describes this book as ‘Exciting, charming and very, very funny.’

When Olive arrives at Mrs Groves’ Boarding School for Naughty Boys, Talking Animals and Circus Performers, it is definitely not what she expected. The principal spends most of her time hiding from the students (who spend most of their time blowing things up and spreading butter on everything) and the school bully not only acts like a nasty pig, he really is one.

But Olive is sweet and kind, and has friendship and wits on her side …

What fun!

With its plucky heroine, wicked villain and lovely hardcover format with illustrations (by Lucia Masciullo) throughout, we think this is a classic-in-the-making. For readers of around 8-12.

To enter, post a comment on the GIVEAWAY story which will be on our facebook page from 8pm 29th October, telling us which storybook school you would most like to attend and why. The three most interesting and original responses by 5pm 3^rd November will each win a signed copy of Olive of Groves, thanks to our friends at HarperCollins Publishers.
