THE ILLUSTRATED CHILD
A haunting, coming of age commercial literary/reading group novel about Romilly, a girl growing up immortalised in her father's Treasure Hunt picture books.
As she grows older, her sheltered existence is fractured by her realisation that her father - now suffering from dementia, left her his own clues to their family secrets in the picture books he wrote.
Think »The Keeper of Lost Things« meets »When God was a Rabbit«, spiked with a little bit of »We Have Always Lived in the Castle«. A story about growing up, confronting mortality, mental illness and what makes us who we are.
Polly Crosby was a runner up for the Bridport Prize, won a scholarship to the Curtis Brown Creative course, and has just been awarded the Annabel Abbs scholarship in MA Creative Writing at UEA.
