- Book Synopsis
- Children's Book Council: Spring 2024 Showcase: Reading List: Transformation When Connie gets a letter from the dad she thought was dead, she sets out to discover why he left her, eight years ago, sitting in an airport café with only her pet chameleon for company. Since then she's lived with her foster mum, a cleaner at the airport, and dreams of seeing her dad again. With her new friend, a fearless, fossil-hunting boy called Thyo, she tracks her dad down. But as he reveals his true colours, Connie starts to wonder if she's made the biggest mistake of her life.
- About The Author
- After studying geology at university, Debbie Thomas trained as a BBC reporter. She worked in Bangladesh and South Africa, then moved to Ireland, where she decided that making things up was more fun than telling the truth in news reports. She has written several children's books (Dead Hairy, Jungle Tangle, Monkie Business, Class Act, My Secret Dragon, Chameleon Dad) and is the writer in residence at Our Lady's Hospital School in Crumlin, Dublin. She is a director of Nepal Leprosy Trust, a charity that supports people in Nepal affected by leprosy. Whenever she visits that beautiful country she waves at Mount Everest - and it always waves back.
