Framed Summary

Framed by Frank Cottrell Boyce

'A writer of comic genius he has something of Roald Dahl's magic, but more heart' The Sunday Telegraph

The perfect crime - it's a work of art, in bestselling, award-winning Frank Cottrell Boyce's funny, touching story, Framed. Cover illustration by award-winner Steven Lenton.

Dylan has accidentally been caught up in the crime of the century. Up until now he's been bored stiff, as the only boy living in the tiny Welsh town of Manod, with only his chickens for company.

Until one day, he spots a mysterious convoy of lorries heading straight for the disused mines. They're carrying a very precious cargo and when Dylan decides to investigate, he is quickly thrown headlong into the greatest art heist in history . . . probably.

A laugh-out-loud story about a very unlikely crime, shortlisted for the CILIP Carnegie medal and the Blue Peter Book Award.
