“To Katy it just wasn’t possible that someone wouldn’t be fascinated by Fran Brocklehurst and her adventures”
The Book Fairies have been celebrating the release of The Extraordinary Voyage of Katy Willacott today, a new story from Sharon Gosling! Will you be lucky enough to spot a copy hiding in the wild?
“Between the rain lashing at her face and her eyes watering, Katy could barely see. Still, she held on fast to the wheel…”
– Sharon Gosling, ‘The Extraordinary Voyage of Katy Willacott’



About the book:
Living among the flowers and ferns of Kew Gardens, Katy has always dreamed of more – of the sky and the stars and the sea. Unfortunately for Katy, her father doesn’t understand. He says young girls should be content to stay at home, not go off gallivanting around the world.
So when news reaches London of a meteorite falling in the faraway land of Brazil and an expedition being put together to find it, Katy knows it’s her chance to follow her dreams and prove her father wrong. And winning a place on the trip is just the start of her extraordinary voyage on the trail of a fallen star…
