Ogres Don’t Dance, Kirsty McKay, ISBN978-1849397155 (Anderson Press) BD2.400 for Gulf Weekly Book Club members
Shrek meets Strictly Come Dancing!
Ogden is a gnarly, man-eating ogre . . .with the dream of becoming a dancer. But no one will dance with him – not when they think they’re going to be his next meal!
Then Ogden meets Willow, a gutsy girl who lives in a tree house in the woods. She makes a deal with him: if he’ll stop eating humans, she’ll teach him to dance. But there are fouler creatures than ogres in the forest, and they might just scupper Ogden’s dancing dreams.
