Word Play – The Boy To Beat The Gods- Kings Heath Primary School

Ashley Thorpe

Uncategorised

Menacing, earth-walking gods are terrorising Kayode’s people. For all his life he has longed to eat the forbidden fruit that would give him the power to fight them – and when the gods kidnap his sister, that fruit falls mysteriously into his path. Kayode jumps at the chance. Determined and crackling with uncontrolled, unpredictable power, he joins forces with a shapeshifting trickster god and a vengeful princess to save his sister and his people. But the power of the Orishas is mighty, and Kayode’s won’t last forever.
