Book Description
Having fled Liverpool, his home city, and left with precious little time to escape his volatile father, Danny ends up in a safe, rural corner of Shropshire, along with his mother. It seems to be another fresh start, but little does he know just how different it will be this time. A problematic beginning at his new school pales into insignificance once Danny disturbs a ghost from the past. Danny’s positivity and resilience will have to confront unpredictable change, isolation, fear, and bullying. If he fails, everything will unravel spectacularly – once again! A story which perfectly complements the transition between primary and secondary school. Steve Morris has spent the vast majority of his career - twenty-three years and counting - in primary education. From class teacher to headteacher, he has worked in many schools across the north-west of England as well as in Shropshire. When class-based, he has predominantly taught year 6 children and is passionate about promoting a love for both reading and writing. Steve is married and has two teenage children. He enjoys getting out regularly on his bike, exploring the beautiful Shropshire countryside. ‘The Distant Beat’ is his debut novel.
