Leo Lennox has made a mistake. A massive, world-altering mistake. Now, the secret his shape-shifter ancestors have kept hidden for thousands of years is in danger of being discovered - all because he insisted on going to school camp. It's no place for a thirteen-year-old Turner still struggling to control his ability to transform into animals. Surrounded every minute of every day by his classmates - including his secret crush, and a pair of terrifying bullies - Leo is going to find out just how much he still has to learn. But when he discovers a fiendish plot, Leo realises that surviving camp is going to be the least of his worries.
THE TURNERS marks an exciting new debut in the Australian kids' book scene ... and we can't wait to hear what happens next! - Better Reading Kids on THE TURNERS The plot and dialogue are strong and well worked, the story original and funny ... this book will make a brilliant read-aloud. Highly recommended. - Reading Time, Children's Book Council of Australia on THE TURNERS
