Product Information

Q: What is the most impressive man made machine you have seen, and did it help inspire Cogheart at the outset? Q: The Victorians loved stories that featured lockets and lost identities - did this help you form some of your ideas for Moonlocket? Both Branford Boase Award and SCBWI Crystal Award have also shortlisted Cogheart whose other nominations include the 2017 editions of the Carnegie Medal, Waterstones Book Prize, and Kate Greenaway Award.

Moonlocket’s translations include Månberlocken (Swedish), Diamantul Lunii Sângerii (Romanian), and Blodmånens Diamant (Danish). Lily and Malkin, the mechanical fox, must stay one step ahead before Jack plays his final, deadly, card. A: When I began thinking of Victorian mysteries, apart from the cases of Sherlock Holmes, the other classic that popped into my mind was The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins - that's where I got the idea for the title of Moonlocket.Skycircus is propelled along by a pulse-pounding plot, though this time the thrills are more adventure- than mysterydriven. Murder, mayhem and mystery meet in this gripping Victorian adventure, nominated for numerous awards; including the Carnegie Medal, the Waterstones Book Prize and the Branford Boase. Watch interesting films - I love old movies which have lots of space for you to add your own interpretation of events.

Bunzl credits his storytelling background—including scriptwriting occupation; and writing diaries, poems and short stories since he was aged around ten—for his easy transition to authorship, despite his initial false start.At the conclusion of this book there is the Outback Jokes section, a traditional rhyme 'Lime Juice Tub" and a glossary of shearing terms. With their adventure-driven plots and steampunk attributes, Peter Bunzl's Cogheart books would be enjoyed by any young reader wanting strong world-building with great characters and plenty of action.

Big Bill is keen to see if Mum will do the cooking for the gang but in the end a cook arrives with the shearers.

In “Cogheart” by Peter Bunzi, Malkin is the only survivor when an airship belonging to Professor John is attacked.
