The Sound of Everything longlisted for Jhalak Children’s and YA prize

Fantastic to see The Sound of Everything by Rebecca Henry on this fine, fine longlist.

Congratulations Rebecca! The Sound of Everything is an amazingly strong debut, dealing with difficult issues in an elegant way. It’s a book that stays with you. ‘Brilliantly assured’ Imogen Russell Williams, The Guardian. ‘It’s doubtful there could be a more authentic teenage voice than that of Kadie in The Sound of Everything’
