Crossing to Paradise

Gatty's story leaped into my heart. When that brave girl went on her pilgrimage and as she turned into a young lady it reminded me (not that my every day life does not) that life is rough, and you just have to stand up there and make the best of it. Kevin Crossley-Holland weaves a cast of intense characters into this story. Rich, full of life and deep it reached right into my very soul!

Gatty works in the fields. she never dreamed of going to Paris, having adventures or making her own choices now it will all come down on her. She must journey to the holy place with a group of other pilgrims it is her job to keep them all safe with her voice.
