The Night I Borrowed Time is out now!

The Night I Borrowed Time

We’re very excited that today is the official release day for THE NIGHT I BORROWED TIME, the first children’s book from our former mentee, Iqbal Hussain. Iqbal’s voice is so warm and funny and this book is absolutely magical – a time travelling, family-centred adventure that takes a young Pakistani-British boy back to the past to find out about the historical forces that formed his family. It’s incredible to see stories of Partition finally making it to British children’s bookshelves, and with Iqbal’s talent for storytelling, I know this is going to be an unforgettable adventure that captures so many children’s imaginations.

The Night I Borrowed Time

“A funny, heartbreaking and uplifting tale about family, bravery and living in the here and now, perfect for fans of Time Travelling With a Hamster and Wonder” – published by Penguin Books.
