Our Judges say:
A lovely celebration of the power of books, and how they can ignite the power in us.Frit Tam
Three friends discover they share a love of the children's iconic book 'Swallows and Amazons' by Arthur Ransome which is filled with tales of sailing, adventure and a joy of the outdoors. A female and non-binary centred story about friendship, adventure and sailing, takes inspiration from these gentle and considered books that have a depth and strength where age and gender appear irrelevant.
