The Farm Beneath the Water

The brilliant sequel to the acclaimed The Secret Hen House Theatre, which was shortlisted for the Waterstones Prize and the Prix Sorcières. Both titles are being reissued with beautiful new covers ahead of the third in the series being published in August 2024.

Hannah's farm is facing a new threat - a water company wants to flood the land to make a reservoir. How can Hannah stand by and watch as her home, the land her family has farmed for generations, the wildlife, the ancient trees, all disappear under a deluge of water? She isn't going to go down without a fight!

Helen Peters' sequel to The Secret Hen House Theatre has all the same hallmarks: great writing and an emotionally engaging, entertaining story.

Hannah's family farm is once again under threat. This time, a water company wants to flood the land to make a reservoir. How can Hannah stand by and watch as her home, the land her family has farmed for generations, the wildlife, the ancient trees all disappear under a deluge of water? She isn't going to go down without a fight, and the school play might just be the answer... When the going gets tough, the tough take to the stage!

This edition is reissued with a beautiful new cover by David Dean.
