Jo Somerset (Spoken Label, October 2024)

Latest up from Spoken Label, features the return of our friend, Jo Somerset.

Jo Somerset is based in Manchester. She completed a MA in Creative Writing in May 2020 at the University of Salford, where she received the Leanne Bridgewater Award for Innovation and Experiment. Like Isla, Jo grew up in Birmingham with an unspoken Celtic heritage. A love of the Hebrides and her experience with a blended family underlie Isla’s heartfelt

journey towards finding her origins and a new self-belief.

In this Podcast, we primarily talk about Jo's new book "Mission: Find Mum"

This book is described as "Isla and Lac's mum is missing, but has left clues, and an emergency credit card. The children travel from Birmingham to Mora, a Scottish island, camping and tracking their mum. Hampered by challenges and unsure of who to trust, can Isla and Lac succeed in their mission? What else will they find... and lose? For ages 10 and up."

The book can be bought directly from Stairwell books:
