The Silence Seeker

Author: Ben MorleyIllustrator: Carl Pearce

Joe’s new neighbour is an asylum seeker, but Joe mishears and thinks he is a Silence Seeker. This is a story of friendship without words or expectations that draws on the natural empathy and understanding between one child and another. It also explores the diversity of city life through gritty, yet child-friendly illustrations that are beautifully atmospheric.
