Set between 1964 and 1977 it tells the tale of a young vole named Joshua Templeton who is in the care of English Woodland Orphanages and decides to write a diary because he has no one to talk to. His cheery disposition and positive manner carry him through the dark years of The Stoat Rebellion.
After being befriended by a paratrooper from the Woodland Central Government Army, Joshua’s life takes twists and turns that would be unimaginable for him before. Joshua’s diary tells of happiness, sadness, and a society fighting to maintain its own existence. The theme of surviving bullying is dealt with strongly.
The Diary of Joshua Templeton is for children from 8 to 12 years old. If you have read The Stoat Rebellion and liked it then this is the book for your kids. Even if you don’t have any kids around its still a good read.
There is much more information, including some more illustrations, on The Stoat Rebellion blog, where you can also order a copy and pay online.
Not to be missed at £4.95 plus £2.50p+p. The Diary of Joshua Templeton is available from the blog, or Lulu.com or directly from us by emailing stoatrebellion@gmail.com
