Things have never been the same in the village since the evacuee arrived and the Five Boys mistook him for a Nazi spy. There have been a host of visitors: the Americans preparing for D-Day, a deserter hiding out in the woods. But it is the arrival of the Bee King who makes the biggest impression. He is a law unto himself, has his own strange rituals and the villagers fear he is beginning to exert the same charm over their boys as he does over his bees . . .

Mick Jackson

Mick Jackson has published four adult novels and two collections of stories, all with Faber.

His first novel, The Underground Man, was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and won the Royal Society of Authors First Novel Award. Mick came to children’s books late, through having his own kids.

The children’s books he most admires are quite eccentric, but underpinned with tenderness.
