Description:

Stitch isn't a mindless monster—he's a brilliant creation, stitched to life alongside gentle giant Henry Oaf by visionary Professor Hardacre. Sheltered in their secluded woodland castle-lab, far from prying human eyes, they've known only discovery and friendship. But Hardacre's death unleashes peril: his arrogant nephew seizes control, eyeing glory over genius, with Henry slated as his twisted next subject. Desperate, Stitch and Henry flee into an unforgiving world unprepared for patchwork beings like them—hostile villages, lurking threats, and self-doubt shadow their path. Can these stitched souls outwit pursuit, forge their place, and claim lives worth living? Award-winning Irish author Pádraig Kenny crafts a gothic Frankenstein triumph—"thrilling, brimming with heart" (Lucy Strange)—for ages 8+. Atmospheric chills, big questions, and unbreakable bonds await!
