The Fire-Eaters
Author: David Almond
Publisher: Hodder
David Almond is one of the most distinctive voices in British children’s fiction. His stories have a strong sense of place as he draws on the area around where he lives near Newcastle. Set in 1962 with the anxieties of the Cuban missile crisis never far away, The Fire-Eaters is the sensitive story of a boy’s growing awareness of himself, his family and the wider world around him.
