«Swop!» is the children's novel by Hilary McKay, published by Barrington Stoke Ltd in paperback (72 pages, in English).
Emily and Ben live with their Aunt Bess, who never lets them have toys, sweets or pets. Emily is very good at bartering: she swaps a song for a violin, her hair for a kitten, and even her grandmother for a donkey. The big question is whether so many swaps will let them escape Aunt Bess forever.
Originally published on 16 March 2005.
The book is aimed at children from around 8-9 years old, especially reluctant readers, those with reading difficulties or dyslexia.
Hilary McKay is a British writer of children's books. For her first novel, The Exiles, she won the 1992 Guardian Children's Fiction Prize, a once-in-a-lifetime book award judged by a panel of British children's writers.
