Elle McNicoll

Like a Charm

 
Hay Festival 2022, 

Edinburgh is a city filled with magical creatures. Nobody can see them except Ramya Knox. Like a Charm is a beautifully written, compelling magical fantasy by award-winning Scottish children’s author Elle McNicoll. Elle’s debut novel, A Kind of Spark, won the Blue Peter Book Award and Waterstones Children’s Book Prize, and is currently being adapted for TV. Elle is an advocate for better representation of neurodiversity in publishing.

Mae Caeredin yn ddinas sy'n llawn creaduriaid hudolus. Does neb yn gallu eu gweld, heblaw am Ramya Knox. Mae Like a Charm yn ffantasi hudolus wedi'i ysgrifennu'n hyfryd gan awdur plant yr Alban, Elle McNicoll, sydd wedi ennill gwobrau. Enillodd nofel gyntaf Elle, A Kind of Spark, Wobr Llyfr Blue Peter a Gwobr Llyfrau Plant Waterstones, ac mae'n cael ei haddasu ar gyfer y teledu ar hyn o bryd. Mae Elle yn eiriolwr dros well cynrychiolaeth o niwroamrywiaeth wrth gyhoeddi.
