Description
What do you do when you’ve lost one of the people you loved most in this world? The days just seem to carry on and on. Until, one day, a chance presents itself to see that person just one more time. Do you take that chance?
This is a story all about what Billy does on the Day of the Dead... when no one ventures outside. Billy sets off on an epic adventure to The Golden Gate, which only appears on this day, with a bag of tricks tailor-made for a dangerous expedition. Along the way he must face perilous situations, meet dangerous monsters, witches and wolves.... and in the end he will learn the true value of friendship. This charming adventure novel is the perfect read for readers aged 11 and up.
Billy and the Golden Gate was inspired by Emma’s late sister, Catherine. “The majority of the characters in the book are infused with the qualities she had in abundance; fun, compassion, empathy, kindness, love, joy, a sense of adventure, wisdom… There are not enough words in the English language to describe how wonderful she was.’’
