WINNER YOUNG QUILL'S AWARD 2016 (Poppy)
"I feel privileged to be recognised by the Historical Association which does much to promote the love of history amongst children." Author Hilary Robinson
“…perfectly pitched by the pair who wrote and illustrated the acclaimed ‘Where Poppies Now Grow’ and ‘The Christmas Truce’… Robinson and Impey are developing an impressive history series with these distinctive titles.”
Sally Morris – Daily Mail

Mercy dog, Flo, has more to contend with than racing across the dangerous battlefield of the Somme. Can she get her medical kit to the injured? Can she lead Ray, the stretcher-barrier, and his donkey to them in time?
Depicting key landmarks of the Somme such as High Wood, Sausage Valley and Crucifix Corner - the only pre war wayside cross which survived the battle - Flo of the Somme pays tribute to the remarkable bravery of the animals who played their part during World War 1.
Written with poignant poetic text and gentle watercolour illustrations, the story shows that, even during the most desperate times, a dog will always remain man's best friend.
