Description:
Step into the heart of growing up with Matt Goodfellow’s beautifully crafted poetry novels — The Final Year and The First Year. This powerful two-book set follows Nate, a boy facing the biggest changes of his young life: leaving primary school behind and stepping into the unknown world of secondary school.
-
The Final Year captures the bittersweet final months of Year 6 — the friendships, the fears, the hopes — with moving honesty and vivid emotion.
-
The First Year picks up the journey, following Nate as he tackles the challenges of a new school, shifting friendships, family struggles, and finding his voice when everything around him feels unfamiliar.
Told in lyrical, accessible verse and illustrated by Joe Todd-Stanton, these stories are perfect for young readers who are navigating change themselves. Goodfellow’s writing shines with warmth, authenticity, and a deep understanding of how small moments can feel monumental when you're growing up.
