Cold Tom (Paperback) - Sally Prue

Sally Prue won the Branford Boase award and the Smarties Prize for Cold Tom when it was first published. This new edition features reading notes to help readers get more from the story and a stunning new cover by talented illustrator Helen Crawford-White.

'Outstanding' Sunday Times Tom is one of the Tribe. But he is not like the others - he is clumsy and heavy, and the Tribe drive him away into the demon city. But Tom can't live with demons either - they are so hot, so foul, and he knows they are trying to enslave his mind. But there is nowhere else to run. Between the savage Tribe and the stifling demons, is there any way out for Tom? This beautiful story about Tom, caught between his elfin home and the world of humans, is being reissued with a stunning new cover by Helen Crawford-White for a new generation of readers to enjoy.
