About this deal

I love the voice and thought processes of Dylan. He is a well-developed character. He and the entire town are greatly affected when paintings from the National Gallery are transferred to their old mountain quarry where the works will be stored to protect them during some bad flooding in London. Dylan realizes that when people see the paintings, the paintings act as a mutagen on the viewers, changing their lives for the better. (He and his friends know all about mutagens because of The Turtles.)

This is an immensely entertaining book, about the power of art to bring about change and to redeem. It is beautifully characterised, funny and profound.

If you just sit down and think of the story you just have the story. But I think giving yourself some time not to think about it at all, just going shopping for lots of nice stuff to put in your book, that's probably the best way to work. And walking around the Gallery, I saw people have been able to tell a whole story in one picture and I found that kind of amazing. And I was really interested in how they do that and it's always worth going and seeing how have they done that? a b c d Kilmurray, Andrew (2 August 2012).

Cottrell-Boyce is an advocate for reading aloud and patron of The Reader Organisation. a charity that works through volunteers to bring literature to everyone, through reading aloud in prisons, care homes and other community spaces. [30] Novels [ edit ]Having loved Millions I bought this book, this time set in Manod in North Wales. Floods in London caused the contents of the national gallery to be evacuated to the old slate quarry in Manod (where they were evacuated in the 2nd World War). The curious small local population soon get wind of this, with some hilarious adventures resulting. Then one day, a convoy of vans arrives at the disused mine, taking into storage the entire collection from the National Gallery of Art. Dylan's interests are football, cars and Ninja turtles - but, through these, the worlds of high and low culture collide and this changes everything.
