Forged in Steel

When Leila and Sam go to stay with their grandma in Sheffield for the school holidays, they soon discover far more then they''d anticipated - not just about their own family''s secrets, but those of the remarkable Women of Steel too! A gem... Warmly embracing three generations of steel-town dwellers, Tomlinson writes a thoughtful tale that glows with character. The story began with Meet Me by the Steelmen, shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal, and this is another engaging story which cleverly and vividly brings the past to life. Years after the steelmen came to life for Jenny and Stevie, their children revisit the mysterious statues, and discover the wonder of Sheffield''s old steelworks as they are magically transported back to an era when the women not only wore the trousers, but the goggles and overalls too...
