Together We Read

We’re excited to share that from 17 February – 3 March, the book Montgomery Bonbon: Mystery at the Manor by Alasdair Beckett-King will be available as part of the Together We Read book club with Sora. The book will have unlimited digital copies on Sora, which means no wait list or holds. It will be available as an ebook or audiobook. The ebook is brilliantly illustrated, and the audiobook is hilariously narrated by the author. It will be a great half term break read.

We encourage you to borrow the title on Sora to read with your student or for them to read on their own. Every student has access to Sora through their Edulink account and can be used on mobile phones, laptops and computers. 

In addition, the Sora team will be hosting a virtual event with author (and comedian) of the book, Alasdair Beckett-King at Minet Library in London. A select number of students will be specially selected to take part.

Happy reading!

About the Book:
Bonnie Montgomery (as her case-cracking alter-ego Montgomery Bonbon) has been tasked with delivering a priceless diamond to Adderstone Manor, the home of retired master thief Fergus Croke. The plot thickens faster than a good roux when Croke is found dead hours later, and every one of his four protégés is suspected of the dirty deed. But when everyone is a crook, how does even the great Bonbon know where to begin? With the help of Grampa Banks and an undercover best friend, it’s not long before Bonbon uncovers hidden identities, motives a-many, and a rather surprising hedge maze full of monkeys. But can they catch the killer, before it’s too late?
