I am properly proud to announce that When Shadows Fall has made the 2023 Yoto-Carnegie Medal short list. Copies of all seven shortlisted books are given to every secondary school library in the land. It's wonderful to know that so many young people will have access to this book. Yoto-Carnegie Medal: "...Brahmachari’s When Shadows Fall, illustrated by Natalie Sirett, is about a teenager struck by tragedy, and his friends’ efforts to save him. Russell Williams included it in her best children’s and YA books of 2021, and said it was a “moving, hard-hitting journey for teens through grief and acceptance, interwoven with powerful illustration and viscerally vivid verse” Read More More Raven Treasure Events: MIGRATION MUSEUM March 28th 2023 Looking forward to running a Raven Treasure workshop with author Sita Brahmachari and musician Love SSega.
