About the Book

Ten-year-old Jamie goes to spend the Christmas holidays with his grandfather - his Grancher Pete - in the beautiful and atmospheric Forest of Dean, while his mother goes on a short trip to Paris. Grancher Pete has a new hobby, collecting evidence of an elusive black panther which supposedly lives deep in the forest, and he takes Jamie with him to search for clues. He also introduces Jamie to a traveller family who live in a nearby camp, and Jamie makes friends with their children, Caro, Finn and Molly. The children show Jamie their huge forest playground and he is intrigued by their alternative outlook on life, which includes learning the 'old ways' from their grandmother and talking to animals in strange and ancient tongues. Jamie's holiday seems perfect when he wakes up to discover that a heavy snowfall has covered the land, and he sets off alone for a snowy play date with his new friends. While he thought he knew the forest well, the landscape looks completely different and he soon becomes lost among the trees. To top it all, Jamie unwittingly puts himself in terrible danger when he accidentally walks into the path of the panther. The legendary animal is real after all, but a more immediate problem is that no-one knows where Jamie is. As the panther creeps towards him, how will anyone be able to find him in time? Children and adults alike will be drawn into Jamie's holiday adventure, and join him in discovering that there are special moments in our lives, when 'unreality' steps into our everyday world to lend us a helping hand.
About the Author: Holman's love of the fantastical and the unusual stems from early childhood, when she loved to withdraw into imaginary worlds. In all her writing, whether stories or scripts, she likes to explore the possibilities that lie outside and alongside the real world. She studied Creative Arts at Newcastle-upon-Tyne Polytechnic and continued to write as a hobby while working as a music, drama and English teacher. In 1995 she left her native North East of England and headed to the Forest of Dean, in Gloucestershire. Her first two books, 'The Wishing Sisters & Other Forest Tales' (2008) and the children's story 'A Cat for Christmas' (2011), which is being relaunched in October 2015 as 'Footprints in the Snow', were inspired by the fifteen years she spent in this atmospheric forest area. Also in 1995, she decided to expand her training, studying screenwriting at cre8 Studios/Media Art in Swindon. She currently lives in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, where she teaches in an international school.
